[quote:Anonymous Coward 739419:MV85MTA3MzFfMTQwOTg0NzZfQjVERUYyMTQ=] [quote:Anonymous Coward 374095] I don't think you realize how much money would be wasted on people who didn't want to be there. It cost a lot to bring someone in just to drum them out. Even in the all volunteer force we spend a ton of money on people who TRY to kicked out because they had buyer's remorse for enlisting. And I'll let the old combat veterans tell you how they felt about draftees in combat. spoken like a true chickenhawk...interjecting fake paper money into a conversation concerning life and death. [/quote] Nope. US Navy. True, the money doesn't seem to mean anything anymore. But, some draftee getting your ass killed is not fake. [/quote]
Original Message
I am in favor of a draft?
Reason being.....if you had skin in the game your views and perception would be radically altered.
As it stands now your battles are being fought via a proxy.
What sat you.....
