stating that our military is the best must always be followed by pointing out that it is normally an all-volunteer force. they are there because they choose to be. forcing people will change that.
Conscript militaries get, otherwise proficient, good people needlessly killed.
Not to mention, they are unconstitutional as being involuntary servitude.
Puts skin in the game
Not a refutation of the fact that it is against the 13th and 14th amendments---unless you want to make conscription a criminal punishment for some crime.
"I like it this way" is not a justification for abridging anyone's rights. I'm surprised you are even on this page if you think that way.
As a veteran grunt, I would not want to rely on someone forced to serve by a draft.
If the situation is bad enough for a draft but the cause is righteous, good people will volunteer.
Works in Israel and Sweden. But I get your point.
Special units for library's. We can position the. In socialist countries paid the same as soldiers from that nation.
I agree with this 10,000%
I was a mom at 19. Can't imagine being separated from my kid to live out some master planner's impersonal vision for me.
Just have them move to Seattle.
They’ll just say it’s not REAL Socialism.
As long as she likes that mouth position, she’ll do just swell.
Not to think dark, but if the depop happens, we will need conscription just to replace all the military that took the shot. About 30% have taken it.
I’ll re-VOLunteer (Tennessee pede).
I’d re-up if I didn’t have to take anymore vaccinations. I probably wouldn’t have volunteered in the first place had I known how many shots they were gonna make me take.
I hear you...got a Shot Record a mile long myself. Did you get your 3 Anthrax cocktails? Oh joy...
I can’t remember if they gave me three or not but I definitely got an anthrax shot before they sent me back home from Iraq.
Yeah. Amazing we survived so much poison, eh?
I hear you in stereo. Sux they used our Patriotism against us in the DS wars...
Call it the "M.U.H. Free college tuition program."
M.ilitary U.niversity H.iring for free tuition program. Or "MUH free tuition" for short.
Nope. Drafts suck. Anyone who says they don't either hasn't served before, is misinfo med or illinformed if they did serve and never really looked at what an ALL VOLUNTEER SERVICE does, or is just plain stupid.
Sorry to call you out on that, but it's true. Either you're a former draftee is who's still pissed your number got called up and want to share in that misery, or you've never served a day in your life.
I've spoken with tons of former draftees at th V.A. awaiting some kind of medical care related to their time in Korea or Vietnam. Most have said if they could go back in time and tell their younger selves what mistakes to avoid, it would be to tell them to haul ass to Canuckistan and dodge the draft. That all hate the fact they were drafted and ALL have some form of med issue related to their service. They were considered a more expendable "asset" because of the draft. The others have some sort of misguided view that because they were drafted, everyone else should enjoy in that misery. And for what, they ask? So that we would know what it feels like to be drafted and forced to do something we wouldn't want to do if we weren't forced to do it.
Sorry, but fuck that. Our military is stronger BECAUSE we aren't conscripted into what is essentially fighting slave force, like China or even Israel. We can walk away. Sure, it's not without consequence, but I've never met someone who went AWOL and was imprisoned or put to death for it since we ended the draft. And I've known more than a few that went UA or AWOL. All they got was Non Judicial Punishment and a quick ticket out with a Dishonorable Discharge. No jail time or death sentence for fleeing and evading for being essentially enslaved/indentured by/to the Fed Govt.
Oooohhhh that’s one of those shows that you watch in horror as the virtue signaling milk toast flounders. It’s hard to look away but you have to because you feel sick. I’ve thought for a long time that between high school & college, kids should work for 2 years helping communities. I think right here in America would be good. They’d have to DO something like help on a farm, build houses, clean up cities…. Wouldn’t that be a wonderful way for them to contribute, grow up and learn self sufficiency?
Maybe I'm a little to supportive of freedom and individuals rights but I kind of think of mandatory military service is maybe even worse than mandatory vaccination. We haven't even been in a war that we should be in for a long time so being forced to invade afghanistan because of 9/11 would be a huge infringement on your first amendment right.
Tbh mandatory military in the US has got to be the stupidest thing I've ever heard of.
If you're supportive of freedom then mandatory military service would be a good, how can we have freedom without protecting it? I think it would teach all these snowflakes to have some respect for our flag, anthem, and veterans. Give them some discipline too. That is if the military doesn't get infiltrated like it's looking like, but i think it's the appear weak when you are strong theory. It wouldn't have to be going overseas, maybe just working as a cook, or an engineer, lots of jobs in the military, would teach trades too instead of useless critical race theory and shit like that in college. Less people going into debt rushing into college for no reason when they aren't ready or mature enough. Military would mature them a bit. Definitely agree we shouldn't be in pointless wars but if we fix this country and have less corrupt people in control, i think mandatory military service would be a benefit to the country, if we did it right.
If your a supporter of freedom you can't support forcing people to goto war. You can't support freedom by violating it. You sound just like the mandatory vaxx supporters tbh.
And to answer how will we have freedom? Well at the moment we have the world's most powerful military without forcing anyone to do anything.
Let's look though? We did not at all need to fight viet nam for outlet freedom but people were forced to go there, become maimed or die. That war, or operation as they like to dislmiss it was not about anyone's freedom. Nor were any of the wars in my life time. I was born in 1975 and none of the wars we've been in had anything to do with freedom, not American freedom or the freedom of the people we invaded. To force people to join the military is to force them to serve in those wars where they have a chance of becoming crippled or killed and many of those people will have children. None of that is remotely linked to freedom.
Having the choice to join has the effect of creating a strong military where as the draft produced a confused military full of people who had no business in combat. Example:vietnam vs WW2
AGAIN, even if the was are important ones like WW2 it is best to let people enlist of their own freedom, but our recent history shows that most wars are about special interests, not about defending our freedom or our country in any way.
You may have valid points about the benefits that very few people have received by joining as in learning a trade or becoming an engineer, but that does not override that person's first amendment right. The vaccine could be said to have beenefits but forcing it on people is a violation of their own space and freedom. You can't establish freedom with tyrant.
The military only needs a handful of engineers and cooks, any way, but even if they needed as many cooks as they did soldiers there is still no justification for violating that person's rights.
Remember. The govt belongs to the people, the people are not govt property. The entire war that is being waged on America right now with he vax etc is about reversing that one thing that makes America great. They want you to be their property. The plan you propose for all citizens to be forced into military servitude would make it ALOT easier for them to make every citizen govt property. When you are in the military they can force vaccinate you and you ARE govt property. They actually do have the authority to chip all military personnel.
Your idea is so idealistic and not thought out.if you want to become a military engineer, great, use your freedom to join the military.
I'd watch that!
But the way the U.S. military is going, they would use that time to TOTALLY brainwash them into leftist mindset.
Perhaps not so. 3 - 6 months is better.
This is a brilliant idea.
As a former Marine, no to conscription when not in a dire time of war.
Plus, you really want everyone indoctrinated in this woke joke of a military?
100% agree.
Would be great to wake up the youth, but I completely disagree with forced military service. Especially with the level of evil that controls our military from the WH.
As soon as you take the..out of their parents basement they'll starve.
Perfect idea, but they should have to commit to living there for a while, in order to have to endure the reality of these oppressive nations.
I really don’t think conscripting liberal pussies would do anything but get good people killed by their incompetence…
That being said watching a bunch of spoiled leftists get torn new assholes by drill Sgts in basic training would be some quality entertainment
Send them all to Liberia that way they can experience a lot of diversity and a failed socialist government, hell its even got lib in the name they would love to be culturally enriched by the Liberians. I mean if they don't want to go their they must be racist, that is how it works right
This model has worked for Israel! I believe it would improve our workforce as well!! Teaching young adults discipline, i.e. getting up early, being responsible to make your bed, laundry, follow orders, working together with others that you may not agree with, etc. LIFE SKILLS which our kids are missing out on in our parenteral methods. I am not saying they should serve in the military but believe boot camp would be a start, then position them in State/Federal Parks too!
Angry little man, who are you talking to?
I don’t think OP is suggesting the government pay for this.
