Well, that was expected. I figured that would come up soon.

I perfer the current LD one over this right now. (Let’s see what I think when I start my research.)

This has to be the easiest topic on the face of the planet.

There is so much evidence that you’ll never be able to process, simply due to the wealth of knowledge available.

Best wishes!

Frankly I’m going to all the VBI kids who did LD - VBI used conscription as their topic. Free precut cards? You betcha.

Kyle 08.15.08 at 8:33 pm

Ha. We were gonna do the same at our school.

Sarah 08.15.08 at 10:31 pm

No one at my school goes to VBI!

Oh well….

i think that the United States should implement a military draft,IF NEEDED! we need to be able to fight for our rites as well as fello Countries (us helping them.) the government is breaking contract with almost everyone in the military by extending their tour of duty for years past the end of it by having a draft it will give EVERYONE less serving time. also i think we wouldn’t be so quick to go to war if the congress and so forth knew there son(s) were having to serve.

They shouldn’t have a military draft because what happens if there’s a family and the father goes to war, dies, there would be so many widdows, single mothers, and children without fathers. What happens if there was a mother that was pregnat and was poor to buy stuff when the father was the one making the money and having a job. A child without a father would be really sad and just having a single mother that has many children without a job. She would feel so much pain for her and her children. Just imagine Fathers Day, what would the kids do without a father. The military does not pay well for those that live.

yeah, but there was a draft in the 70’s and those kids grew up just fine. i’m not pro draft, but for our countries protection, i think sad kids would not be so hard of a price to pay. I mean i grew up without a dad, and sure my mom had to work a few extra hours and yeah fathers day was a bust, but i’m fine too. If you find any studies about father-less families and if they’re screwed up, do share.

by the way, only if the draft was needed…
