For the people who did NOT READ MY ENTIRE POST AND ARE JUST RESPONDING to the HEADLINES… You are MISSING THE POINT. A military with EVERY SEGMENT OF SOCIETY REPRESENTED would make the DEPLOYMENT of TROOPS and foreign wars LESS likely as there would be MORE accountability at the highest levels of power. Right now, the all-volunteer force means the sons and daughters of politicians, billionaires, Hollywood elites, and the ruling class are almost never the ones in uniform. That makes it far too easy for elected officials to vote for endless foreign adventures — they suffer no personal cost. When every family — rich or poor, red or blue, from every race, creed, and zip code — has skin in the game, things change dramatically. Congress would think long and hard before sending American troops into another faraway war that isn’t vital to our national survival. No more cavalier decisions. No more “other people’s kids” dying while their own kids stay safe at Ivy League schools or in Beverly Hills. That’s not pro-war. That’s anti-reckless-war. It’s the same reason universal service in places like Israel and Switzerland hasn’t turned them into warmongers — it forces leaders to feel the real human cost before they pull the trigger. Read the whole post. The goal is unity, strength, and responsibility — not endless conflict. We want a military that truly reflects America… so America stops treating its military like disposable chess pieces. God bless the United States of America. Love, Rob Schneider

Rep. Rich McCormick: "We were horrible in Vietnam until we did Rolling Thunder One and Rolling Thunder Two, and then we won. As soon as we do half-measures, we lose. The faster we get this over the better. If we seize Kharg Island, it's technically boots on the ground. It could be done almost flawlessly. If we have enough firepower, it would be very easy to defend."
