So do you people think this info is just fiction? http://www.politicalforum.com/index.php?threads/american-imperialism.371897/ I've lived abroad for about twenty eight years and almost all political discussions I hear are based on the above info. Outside of the US there's nothing more amusing than a group of Americans discussing politics. Outside of the US Americans are considered to be very naive and easy to manipulate.
I wanted to post this earlier but I couldn't find the link. I just found it. http://www.politicalforum.com/index...germany-in-1933.401955/page-3#post-1066548138 The American media are the worst places to get info to form opinions on.
I say INVOLUNTARY SERVITUDE or more precisely SLAVERY is a clear violation of the 5th, 8th, 9th, 10th, 13th and 14th Amendments to the federal Constitution. It always was and always will be, period.
Edit: I should have also added: That means the "board", whoever they may be, dictate what "religious or moral beliefs" are eligible for their approval??? Is that serious? In America? That sounds more like Saudi Arabia.
Just read the part about the American media. http://www.politicalforum.com/index...germany-in-1933.401955/page-3#post-1066548138 After you've read that, check out some of this. http://www.politicalforum.com/index.php?threads/american-imperialism.371897/ There's nothing NAZI about it. It's just objective info on what's really happening.
a 5 year prison sentence is enough to encourage most people to go to war, and it could be enjoyable for people who like playing video games since robotics and drones are used now in warfare missions. the many educational, housing, and pension benefits stated in the OP are another good reason to defend the freedom of people in other countries.
Yeah genocide and other war crimes can be fun, fun, fun for sick bloodthirsty savages. This is what "defending the freedom of people in other countries" looks like: War is a Racket - US Marine Corps Major General Smedley D. Butler
Bottom line is if anybody isn't willing to defend this country then they don't get to enjoy its benefits, which are considerable in themselves, as anybody who has traveled to foreign countries should know, unless they just stuck to the tourist resorts. As stated in other threads, other kinds of public service options are there as well; not everybody has to be active military, and not every defense job requires carrying a weapon or even seeing one. My kids volunteered to go Israel a couple of summers while in Jr. High and spent a couple of weeks with a couple of dozen other volunteers from other countries testing and re-packaging shipments of gas masks, for instance. Other jobs are construction, clerical stuff, medical, etc., etc., etc., and in peacetime there are all kinds of civilian projects that can be done, local, state, and Federal. Yes, it was boring while they were doing that, but they like the memories and are glad they did it.
There are more than a few blacks who hate Koreans big time where we will not need a draft to kill Koreans. Blacks burned down most of Korea Town during the L.A. riots in 1992. But when they came up againts Korean-Americans who exercised their Second Amendment Rights when liberal government failed, the blacks fled like snowflakes and moved on to white liberal neighborhoods to loot and burn down. War with North Korea...only draft blacks and Latino's giving them a second chance.
If this country needs to be defended and its people aren't willing to defend it then they face the consequences of their failure to defend it. But that has nothing to do with involuntary servitude, especially not when said involuntary servitude doesn't actually serve one's country but rather serves the interest of the military industrial complex or other corporate interest.
