A few weeks ago, this blogger posted what was intended to be an at-least-somewhat over-the-top suggestion at what one of the ideas issuing from the "Party Of Ideas" might be:
"Hey, I've got an idea! Let's re-instate the draft!""But that would mean that our children could be required to serve."
"Oh...hey, I've got an idea! Let's re-instate the draft -- but only for niggers!"
"Too right!"
Turns out that that "idea" may not have been so over-the-top after all:
The Defense Department yesterday began working with a private marketing firm to create a database of all U.S. college students as well as high-school students between ages 16 and 18, to help the military identify potential recruits in a time of dwindling enlistment.The program is provoking a furor among privacy advocates. The new database will include an array of personal information including birth dates, Social Security numbers, e-mail addresses, grade-point averages, ethnicity, and what subjects the students are studying. [Emphasis added.]
According to a DoD drone, "The program is very important because it helps the recruiters be more effective to target qualified candidates for specific missions."
Is it too much of a stretch to assume that the "specific missions" that our, er, darker-skinned brothers will be "recruited" for will be getting their asses shot off overseas?
At any rate, the company chosen to "process" the data boasts that it maintains
arguably the largest repository of 16-25 year-old youth data in the country, containing roughly 30 million records. ... BeNOW helps to produce the High School Masterfile (HSMF), Selective Service System (SSS), Joint Leads Fulfillment (JLF), and College and Permanent Suppression releases for the Services to use in their respective marketing/recruiting efforts.
Got that, parents? Your tax dollars (should you choose to pay them) are not only being used to round up your children to get their asses shot off, but to allow private companies to profit during the process.
It doesn't get any more real than that: refuse to pay your taxes, and your children may be safe; consent to pay your taxes, and your children are toast.
