I must've dreamed a thousand dreams
Been haunted by a million screams
But I can hear the marching feet
They're moving into the street

What’s the poem - it’s beautiful.
We will see this here...Different monsters, different clothes. The same nonetheless..
The 0SS?
"Barack Obama's presidency is illegal! That's what political insiders are saying after a shocking birth certificate from a hospital in Kenya reveals America's Commander-in-Chief was born in Africa! GLOBE has all the explosive details you can't afford to miss!"
Latest attack from the Globe. Maybe spread out over thousands of supermarkets across the U.S, it will get Mr. and Mrs. Bubba Sixpak to do some thinkin'. LOL

Whine, whine, whine, mercenary armies worked out really well for the Romans. The Mercs are loyal to the sound of money only.
No, I meant I would have to pass on being a guv’ment Americorp volunteer.
More like haunting - "Land of Confusion" [Genesis song] ...
I must've dreamed a thousand dreams
Been haunted by a million screams
But I can hear the marching feet
They're moving into the street
Now did you read the news today
They say the danger's gone away
But I can see the fire's still alight
There burning into the night
There's too many men, too many people
Making too many problems
And not much love to go round
Can't you see this is a land of confusion?
Well this is the world we live in
And these are the hands we're given
Use them and let's start trying
To make it a place worth living in
Ooh, Superman where are you now
When everything's gone wrong somehow?
The men of steel, the men of power
Are losing control by the hour
This is the time, this is the place
So we look for the future
But there's not much love to go round
Tell me why, this is a land of confusion
This is the world we live in
And these are the hands we're given
Use them and let's start trying
To make it a place worth living in
I remember long ago when the sun was shining
Yes, and the stars were bright all through the night
And the sound of your laughter as I held you tight
So long ago ...
I won't be coming home tonight
My generation will put it right
We're not just making promises
That we know, we'll never keep
Too many men, there's too many people
Making too many problems
And not much love to go round
Can't you see, this is a land of confusion?
Now this is the world we live in
And these are the hands we're given
Use them and let's start trying
To make it a place worth fighting for
This is the world we live in
And these are the names we're given
Stand up and let's start showing
Just where our lives are going to ...
You guys realize this is not only requiring service for all citizens, but reinstating the draft, right?
“to authorize the induction of persons in the uniformed services during wartime to meet end-strength requirements of the uniformed services, and for other purposes.”
See post #41
Ultimately the choice will be stoking the fires or being in the ovens.
Ultimately, if we let it get that far.
sounds like the draft to me. Is Charlie Rangle involved in this???
Read the article first.
I'm with you on that. NO exemptions. None. Not for college, not for disability, NADA!
As for those thinking this will reinstitute slavery, or enslave all of us, I doubt it. Not while I'm still breathing. I still remember my oath of enlistment, and I'm not aware of anything that will release me from it.
“Where did you note anything about paying anybody?”
Last paragraph, IIRC. “compensation to be determined...”
Nope, forgive me, Section 105 b)6.
(6) Standards for compensation and benefits for persons performing their national service obligation under this title through civilian service.
See my post #90
If you mean about all of us on the dole, hmmmm. It's a two-year commitment, between ages 18-42. I'm not sure I'm following that... enlighten me, if you would.
