re: I still like my recommendation.......if a congressperson or president votes to go to war, one of their relatives has to fill a position in the military fighting the supposed enemy. Its time the elite are visible on the battlefield like in the old days. I agree that's a wonderful idea. But how do we get the citizen chicken hawks to sacrifice one of their own? I'm sure they would be excited to sacrifice their first born so that Iraqi women can live under Sharia law... as 1800 plus US families have already done. (For a neo fantasy... makes me sick). It won't happen so long as the corruption in this country continues. When you have middle class joes like Joe H. defending the rich elites and their self serving behavior, its very unlikely such a law can get passed. Until those people are thoroughly discredited and their 'truths' shown to be the lies they really are, then and only then, can things be changed. ted
