    Protecting the population means more than funneling money into the pockets of contractors.

    I think every country should enforce a mandatory conscription and include universal healthcare with that. This would solve many problems

      We do pretty well with universal healthcare and no mandatory conscription thanks. If you want to do that in the US be my guest but no kid should be sent to die by a bunch of old people that have nothing to lose and all to gain from useless wars. Look at Russia right now, is that what we really want in the 21st century?
