No wealthy or connected kid can escape service. Most importantly, every warmongering Congressional chickenhawk's kid goes and has just as good a chance of coming home in a box as the kid of the maintenance man in their condo. Everybody goes, everybody dies.

We'll see if the Congress is so anxious to fund another personal war of Presidential legacy like we got in 2003.
I am right there with you 100%.

By the way, how did you go from a throwing dogshit at the cops protester to a Marine?

Was it that duality of man, the Jungian thing?
