There is no need for those in the ghetto to risk their lives by going in the military. You think they really want to go in the military? Their backs are up against the wall and they have no choice. There is no need for them to fight to protect the interests of Texaco, Exon, or US Based Corporations overseas. They are just being treated like tools to serve the interests of Corporate America. Take that money away and give them a free college education with a dorm room. That's the liberal way to do it.

I can't support the legalization of drugs that kill people, such as heroine, crack and excessive use of cocaine. I think you are way over the top here.

The Military, in the classic sense, represents a vehicle to enforce national security; it should not be a government jobs program whose goal is to protect the interests of Corporate America.

There are more honorable and dignified ways to treat poor people than having them become the deadly servants of greedy corporations.
