and I am all for bringing back the draft, I've maintained that position for years.
but I guess you libs don't remember Clinton's "draft dodger" issues when we got involved in Bosnia under his watch? I don't necessarily believe that distinguished military service is a prerequisite to be POTUS, after all when was the last time we had POTUS who was both a decent President AND served with distinction. Obama? Nope, Bush? nope. Clinton? nope HW Bush" some would agree, it's doubtful that you would. Reagan, Ford, Carter??? zip zip and zip. Nixon, and Johnson both served but they were hardly "decent" at being POTUS. So in the last fifty years we have ONE POTUS who both served and "possibly" was decent at his job and of course Bush was rejected by the voters in his bid for reelection, so I suppose we are at ZERO....countries competed in a two-day tank challenge. Murica didn't even finish in the top 3. The competition was won by Germany, with Denmark finishing second and Poland taking third. Poland!!
Are they still printing instruction manuals for our soldiers in comic book format because our soldiers can't read??
How many of Trump's four adult children have lent their talents to the military? Do they have bone spurs like their daddy? Bring back the draft and take righty cowards first!!
but the Clintons have plenty of cowards in their family as well. Bill Clinton has the exact amount of military service as does Trump
Why not draft lefty and righty cowards alike? And "Senator's sons" should all be considered to be ineligible for any kind of deferment whatsoever, or more accurately the offspring of all members of Congress and the POTUS as they are the ones who declare war, The POTUS of course doesn't declare war, but potatoe/potato
Maditory two years military service after high school, both male and female.
If you don't graduate then its 4 years of service to learn how to read and write. No college "get out of military" card. Lot of problems would be soved over night.
There are MILLIONS of teenagers both men and women coming of military age every year. If we conscript everyone of them for two years, just how do we pay them?
In theory I like your idea, but in practice, I don't see it being something we can afford to do.
even cops in the Chicago South End. Plus, we could start a few more wars. The military does not pay much more than minimum wage. May be well worth the cost.
When they get out and go to college we can make the money back from 8% student loans.
Surely you don't want a Federal police force, do you?
and do you have any idea what the real cost per soldier actually is once you factor in the cost of training, equipment, housing, meals, etc etc etc? The soldiers themselves don't make jack shit, nor did they forty years ago when I wore the uniform, but that doesn't mean the burden to taxpayers would not be untenable
Hillary tried to join the Marines but she said they brushed her off because she's a girl. Even though she was named after Sir Edmond Hillary they wouldn't give her a chance. Chelsea Hubbell has not served in the military either nor did her step dad Bill Clinton.
