News finally turning negative on our wars

Enough with America's 'thank you for your service' culture. It's betrayal, not patriotism.

America's military is misused, and our service men and women are perpetually abused and misled. Perks like priority airline boarding won't fix that.

I expect more like this to come, albeit when we’re not in the middle of some empire building farce. I guess at least a decade late is better than never.

I am for 100% conscription, with no exceptions. Train everyone how to fight and then how to work together to deal with natural disasters (much more of the latter than the former). Then there would be greater resistance toward misusing Americans to benefit corporations.

That's an interesting thought. I think the government should also offer other lifetime perks careers that doesn't involve killing foreigners. Our military now is largely an economic draft.
