Lol how the hell are we going to go to war with China when it takes us a month to produce a day's worth of inadequate ammunition for Ukraine? Also I think the poverty draft has its limits. Some people seem to really want kinetic war with China but I have no idea how they think it will happen.

We are not going to war with China. They are a completely integrated component of our globe-spanning capital circuit. You think Tim Apple or Phil Knight or BIll Gates are gonna let some politicians screw up their bags?

Thank you both. Some of us do, actually, know deeply how depraved, murderous, abusive, military "service" is. To train kids, essentially, to obey and act to "mop up" other humans...is the job. Terror is the work.
