I think we would have a lot less hypocritical congressmen if they all had to send their kids and grandkids to an automatic draft. It always seemd to me the that the percentage of farm kids in the military far exceeded the numbers of rich and connected kids in the military. I did four years of active duty in the 1970's and I met quite a few farm kids while I was stationed on the east coast. Never did meet up with a rich kid or a congressman's kid the whole 4 years in the service. It kind of blows a whole in the theory that the risk takers if they succeed will get the spoils. The reality is that the rich and well connected who take no physical risk will be the ones fattening up their bank accounts at the expense of the lower middle class including farm kid's who take all of the risk.
