Involuntary Servitude
March 26, 2009 – 6:25 amMany (if not most) disagree with my opposition to conscription because I hold it to be involuntary servitude, prohibited by the 13th amendment to the Constitution. I can live with that disagreement.
What is even more clearly involuntary servitude is the “GIVE act” requiring government defined “service” by all young people. Volunteering ceases to be so when it becomes “mandatory”. Just as taxation is often extolled by collectivists as “contributing” this is just another statist lie.
Call your congress-critters to instruct them to oppose this further assault on American Freedom.
One Response to “Involuntary Servitude”
I do not support conscription. Neither did Ronald Reagan, by the way. We didn’t need it after Pearl Harbor. We would not need it now, if we didn’t have a 40-year case of schools teaching self-hate to all Americans of European ancestry, as well as of all things American. Societies worth defending, that is, ones that believe in themselves, case up men who will defend them in time of need. Our society is committing suicide. Drafting the unwilling to be lead by the unknowing who hold power to fight for their dead god Democracy is a losing proposition. That’s why we’ll see mercenaries like KBR and Blackwater used more often, why citizen-soldiers will be supplanted by SF units, and why illegals will be offered citizenship for service, a la the French Foreign Legion. That’s how empires roll.
