No draft since then and war machines are still fed. The reasons to bring back the draft are many. Most people learn from their mistakes. America should on having made the mistake of getting rid of the draftof course.I suspect many American militia groups would be unfitHow many veterans are not actively serving at this time?
Militias are also good at filling in the ranks by volunteering to become regulars in times of need.
We have the National Guard and during the Bush/Cheney Iraq war, not enough citizens signed up when needed
bring back the damn draft
..and that, Dante, is where we part ways....
you can't admit when you're wrong
The draft fed the war machine in Vietnam. It is the single most firm thing that I stand against. LBJ and Nixon both had no qualms whatsoever about getting me killed because the did not want to go down in history as the first president to lose a war. May they, and their military advisors rot in hell.
Then you better figure how to get our sleeping electorate awake to the fact our presidents have an imperial war machine that can be sent anywhere at anytime without Congress's declaration of war.were people I knew. That can not be compared to the number of dead in our all volunteer armed forces, since then. I would fight the draft all the way to prison, if they were to bring it back, short of an attack by a foreign nation on our nation. I can honestly say that there would be little, if any restraint on my part in fighting it. Those that are not old enough to remember Vietnam are completely clueless of what an unrestrained military industrial complex is prepared to do to this country, if unleashed again.

I don't think that I have ever admitted this, but I voted for baby Bush the first time. Because of this issue (and others), I have not voted republican, since. Yes, Obama continued the wars. I consider that the lessor of two evils. I am active in any anti-war movement that I can find, and vote accordingly.

True, but I suspect that we no longer have to worry about the NAZIS is Germany, where we still maintain 56 military bases. And over 100 in Italy...what the hell is that all about? Are we afraid of someone diverting all of our olive oil?

Brain washed by the fear mongering military industrial complex. These are the same people who gave us the domino theory in Vietnam, and the Cuba embargo.

Letting your emotions get away with you like this is irresponsible.
WE have civilian control of the military. Current high ranking or military/cabinet advisers? How many times have high ranking military officers been wrong? Are their words and opinions sacrosanct?Can you find three current high-ranking officers who think having a draft is a good idea unless absolutely necessary?
