7. cannot wait for the draft, quite honestly
and all that I know realize it is coming... in the military community... and all of us are silently smiling these days... we all know a freeper or two who can use the time in the military, after all they will not voluntarily join, if you get my drift.

10. As things progress they soon will get a clue,let's hope is not too late!
It is a American problem, but typical of people, it will happen to someone else and NOT to them.
