I think that our country should have Military Funeral Duty for our citizens. It would be like jury duty. Thirty American citizens are selected to attend every military funeral. Let them look into the eyes of a Mother who has lost a child to war. They can tell her that the Defense Budget is too big.

My brother died in Nam and I don’t think I would have wanted anyone at his funeral only because they were drafted. They should have to go see the active duty guys 2 days before deployment.
