re: At its core it meant most people were not drafted. 1 in 10 means just that, that 10% of draft age men where drafted. I admit I thought it was less, but 10% is still a fairly small minority. You don't get it. You never got "the letter". Your life has been free to choose your own path, not make decisions based on the government taking your ass into a combat zone. Your whine is about an incremental point in lousy income taxes, what a wimp. It's always amazing to me how assholes who know nothing can be experts by reading statistics. You have no understanding about the moral and ethical decisions, and social decisions involved for an 18 year old kid in 1967. To kill and be killed, to be forced to fight in a war that you knew was pure bull shit. Or to make other evasive decisions that were counter to your every moral fiber. 18 years old with a very well developed ethical compass. But you are such a wise ass fucking expert on everything, that you can TELL ME what it was about? You are a child playing a little debate game. I'm a man that lived the reality. I'm done with you. You are an anal retentive jerk that cares about numbers, not people. It won't serve you well. Good luck. John
