I read two hundred plus post threads on this.

Consider these two scenarios:

1. Women only in non-combat roles take those roles away from men who now are combat eligible. Net resort, more men KIA. This is not equality.

2. Jane 22, John 24, two kids 3 & 1. What happens to the kids when they both get drafted?

I agree with Cruz, the idea is nuts.

Probably the same thing that happened during WWII if you were the sole survivor of a farm or were in a critical profession needed for the war effort. You were exempted from the draft. So, if the husband was drafted and serving and the mother got a draft notice, she would probably be exempted.

I rag on Cruz a lot, but I agree with him on this issue. Plus, he has 2 little girls he deosn’t wanted drafted. This country has gone mad!
