Under Biden, who knows? Maybe there will be a shift to "pronouns of color"?? Man who mistake shillelagh for fairy wand; see pixie dust, also.

As with the draft in the past there would be obvious ways to circumvent etc. but to me it would still be a better choice for government spending then assistance, etc. Bryce

If it's unfair, don’t let it irritate you. If it's ignorant, smile, but if it's justified, learn from it. :-) "Humans are the hardest people to get along with." Dr. Phillip Snow

And Joe is saying he wants to have females required to apply for a draft. Not good. But hey, ya'll wanted that "equal opportunity". If I was still in, I'd be jumping ship.

Surprisingly more children from very wealthy households enlist than children from the very poorest households. https://www.cfr.org/backgrounder/demographics-us-military Black people and women are very under represented in the US military. It's a myth that most US soldiers are poor and uneducated. They are mostly true patriots. Keith

And a reminder that "I was just following orders" has been an unsuccessful defense during tribunals. That's the vetting I want to see. Mike One man with a gun may control 100 others who have none.
