Not when your country creates the problems they want you to die for.

Don't you find that kind of strange little Bong??? Hmmm? I do!
But hey...we have to protect you and your family from the evil freedom hating Muslims somehow!! :thumbsup:

Fuck Charlie Rangel, fuck the Dems and the Reps, this draft will never pass, and if it does it may just prove to be the perfect reason to move to the netherlands and enjoy one of the few truly free libertarian societies, instead of staying and fighting a special interest war so that halliburton can have a new country to plunder, all while politicians are eroding our freedoms and running the country into the ground.

Nobody expects it to pass. It's a 'make a statement' kind of thing, basically. The Dems are just saying that in a perfect world, the children of the wealthy would share in the burden when conflict is deemed necessary, which would then make the wealthy a tad more reluctant to commit our forces. But everyone knows that isn't going to happen, however nice it might be.
What'd be interesting is if they reinstituted a draft JUST for the children of parents who have gross income above, say, a million dollars a year. In other words, if you and your family have dipped so deeply into the well of American prosperity, you ARE gonna get out there and fight for our way of life. We don't need a draft to encourage the poor to join the Army -- they don't have many options anyway. But the rich...they very rarely serve in our military. In four years of service, in a variety of places and conditions, some combat and some not, I never met a fellow soldier from a wealthy family. Not one, in four years.

Incidentally, a college-educated but reluctant son or daughter from a rich family might not be any worse than some poor 40-year old guy who barely has a high school diploma who joins the Army because his daughter is dying from leukemia and that's the only way he can get medical care for her.
There are LOTS of people in our military now who are there because their other alternatives were just plain worse. Is that what makes a professional soldier, someone who joins simply because the alternatives are unbearable? If that's true, then a draft would not affect that at all: you'd have people joining to stay out of prison, rather than to avoid becoming homeless or whatever. Basically the same thing: join or suffer. The only real difference with a draft is, the wealthy get the same choices as the poor.

as for the loser comment, i take that as a compliment coming from a middle aged guy with a constipated looking cartoon superman as an avatar.

This and the show glenn beck just did should show you what we are really up against. Scroll down on that link and look at the timetable. They fight us with a religious cause. We fight them with political correctness. Iran isn't someone who should have anything nuclear, period. Our troops might get boosted in Iraq. The origional suggested amount was something like 700,000. The new head of the marines want to increase there branch from 180,000 enlisted. The only problem with that is recruitment numbers are down due to Iraq. People aren't exactly lining up knowing where they might get sent off to.

The Draft...hhmm Well, I guess if you're going to go around attacking other countries you will eventually need one. Especially if the people in charge aren't smart enough to do only what is necessary as efficiently as possible.
A coworker of mine is half hispanic and the Marines keep calling him to try to get him to enlist. True to the Neo-Con form "Hey! Getting killed in Iraq sucks! Let's get a Mexican to to it!"
