“If you don’t serve, you don’t vote.”

Ah but you are in the system when you sign up for the draft, and are basically on-call to drop your life and go to war.

Those people should be able to vote for a government that has the power to send them, and make sure the people they elect aren’t going to use them as cannon fodder for an inexcusable conflict.

Eliminate the power to send them (eliminate the draft and selective service requirement). In all honesty; the only people I want standing next to me on a hot LZ, are the people who are there because they knew it was their duty and responsibility. To me, their families, and their country.
Getting rid of the selective service should not be a big deal, congress could do it in a day.
ALL FOR EQUALITY OF COURSE.
