Economic Recession

[Meiscool-2]

Yeah, drafts are only used in times of dire need to begin with, which is pretty fair if you ask me.

[Drace]

Ok ok, I lost it. "Draft" Explain? =P

[ZeroKirbyX]

Draft, conscription. A required term of military service.

[Meiscool-2]

Yup. You either fight the war or go to jail.

[Drace]

Ugh >.< Sounds stupid.

[Archem]

It is. I'm extremely anti-military, personally. I'm fine with the people who want to fight fighting, but I refuse it for all circumstances. If a draft is ordered during my lifetime, and I'm ordered to serve, I'd much rather serve jail time than fight. Total pussy, I know, but I never agree with any conflict, especially on that scale.

[Uberpwn_w00t]

I agree with Archem 1,000% ****ing percent.

[Cerebus]

And I agree with him 100%, because you can't really agree more than totally.

Forcing people into war is just... wrong. Unless, maybe, if it's your country that's being attacked.

[Archem]

I still find that to be a maybe, because I can guarantee you that if a large-scale invasion were to occur in my country, I've got family in Mexico.

[drenrin2120]

Don't quote me on this, but I'm pretty sure if you're honestly and 100 percent non-violent, meaning you're a borderline hippie kinda deal, you can get out of the draft, in America. Or you could just say you're gay, 'cuz, you know, we're all a bunch of homophobes over here in America.

[Meiscool-2]

Gays are too important to fight in a war. We wouldn't want one of our precious ***s to get hurt.

Dude, seriously get out of America right now. Overall I'm against war, but if we were to be invaded it's not as much of a war as it is self-defense. You would just run to Mexico? You're a little coward dude, and I seriously hope you don't plan on dating the opposite sex because based on that response, you are in no position whatsoever to protect and care for a woman. It's this kind of attitude that has thrown America into a crap hole. There isn't any humanitarianism anymore. People would rather run away from a situation that, in their mind they aren't involved in, just to save their own ***, instead of doing something to help someone else. What a shitty thing to say man, if you don't believe in preserving this country's ideals, get the **** out already.

Btw drenrin, I'm pretty sure the only way you can get out of the draft with a Conscientious Objector status, you have to be able to prove it with facts based on your lifestyle previous to the claim. So for instance, if you were involved in a fight with someone (and it was documented) and you try to claim CO status, saying it's against your religion or something, the government will say you're full of **** and throw you in jail if you still refuse induction. The only way you can get out of fighting in the war, as well as going to jail, is having a record that more or less has saint written all over it. And actually, I don't think saying you're gay works anymore. I think if you have AIDS you can get out of it though. :p

All that needs to be said. Covers my *** beautifully, too.

As of yesterday, the 14th, we're back to 70US cents. We're coming back.
And only a month until Left 4 Dead...
