"No draft, no taxes, no rationing and no conservation equate to very little cost,...."

There is no draft because one is not needed. I don't know where you are living, but taxes are killing me. Rationing, again, not necessary and there is no need to make "pretend" sacrifices. As for conservation, I don't drive unnecessarily given the rather high cost of gas and the fact that I'm looking for work, but if conservation of something or other were necessary, I'm sure it would occur. Now your point also assumes, in part, that there is no pain to us, no sense of loss, when we lose young people who exemplify the best of us. Oh, and your other arguments aren't very good either.

Taxes are killing you, and you don't have a job? Gas is expensive and you're living in the US? Funny.

Now how about supporting a little sacrifice on the home front to support the brave men and women overseas, like a BTU tax?
