Were we better off with the draft?
It is my understanding that 1% of our population joins the volunteer military and I do not know what percentage of the population was in the military when there was a draft.
However, my contentions remain the same regardless of the number of troops we have; more than ever, America wants to be policeman for the world.
And as the worlds' police station, America has its code of conduct which is its constitution, faithfully followed to the letter by the Military Industrial Complex. The basic tenants of the constitution is wealth by any means necessary but first and foremost, the police station must have manpower and that takes on a life of its own; needs and goals have to be created for a volunteer army:
To this very day we are witnessing the process of satisfying the needs of the military. There is in existence a weakening of our educational system, embarrassing un-employment numbers and patriotic efforts to completely dehumanize other populations of the world.
Extra enticements for recruitment are the lowering of standards for -amongst other things- high school diplomas, tattoos, age and criminal records.
We can all, hallelujah, become “Duh police!” That would be our biggest contribution as a country and appears to be the perpetual wet dream of our American oligarchy.
I am mindful of something I heard long ago. It seems there was a time when people in other countries would fondly say, “The Americans are coming” but are now saying, “Yikes! The Americans are coming!”
As always,

P.S. Funny how fast Dr. Laura left the news scene as soon as there was serious talk about boycotting her sponsors. Bet’cha her sponsors took the threats very seriously and had a talk with “The good ol’ boys” in the control rooms.

Most influential is the Needs (content) Theory
The underlying concept is the belief that an unsatisfied need creates tension and a state of disequilibrium. To restore balance, a goal is identified that will satisfy the need and a behavior pathway to this goal is selected.
