[QUOTE="witzend, post: 145414, member: 99"] It's just wrong. I feel very strongly that if our country wants to continue this war in the middle east, the only way to keep us strong is to re-enact the draft. I know that this probably gets a knee jerk reaction from a lot of people, but you're either a patriot or you're not. "Stop-Loss" (which is in reality a draft of enlisted men who have already served their time) is not right. Private armies (Blackwater, Haliburton) paid, compensated, and equipped better than our volunteer soldiers is not right. What happens if something happens at home? Who will protect us? It's just not right. We are either for the war or we're not. If we are for it, we have to give equally, not expect those who have already given to keep giving until they have nothing left to give.
