Let’s just make a list and petition everyone who has the authority to award these to him as long as he goes away. I think it just might work.

Give him the Nobel Peace Prize, an Olympic gold medal for golf/every event, a Congressional Medal of Honor, the Westminster Kennel Club “Best in Show”, “Croix de Valeur militarie”.

They are going to reinstate the draft. This needs to hit the general population; to get those who are not concerned about veterans to pay attention to the fact that they will be affected. It will affect them either personally or secondarily (when family members/friends are drafted).”

Reinstating the draft will allow them to cut salaries, dependent benefits; GI Bill, proficiency pay, (re)enlistment bonuses, and not provide assurances of benefits for service connected disabilities. All of these benefits that encourage voluntary service.

Response:
“You asked about the “bigger agenda”. Here is my opinion, and it is speculative, but I think the long term goal is to reinstate the draft. Many politicians talk about cutting wasteful government spending; but they are happy to spend on the military industrial complex.
