This is not a draft. Which is like 18-26ish typically.
BUT, that doesn’t mean the draft is fixed at those ages. BUT, I doubt they would ever need to draft up to 42 based on the US population and the willingness of psychos to want to a) kill people or b) get paid to kill people via promises of a better life later as a veteran (Baby killer)

Tagging you as “killing is cool” for trying to justify joining the military and killing people to have a good life for yourself as somehow acceptable in any situation.
With as much civility as a person like you deserves: please exit the planet at your earliest convenience.

Not sure where that came from, but tag me however you want. Might want to reread what I wrote that was agreeing with you and adding more ways people get funneled into service? Nothing I said was a promotion for joining anything.

I don’t need to re-read you saying it’s okay to join the baby killers so you can eat. Kill the baby killers, not the babies. Trash.

Chill the fuck. That isn’t what they said at all. They said it’s the reason some people do it.

Do you think it’s okay to join the military and kill people for a government who won’t feed its people, just so you can eat?
It’s a yes or a no.

Good thing I don’t value the opinion of magats or veterans.

They need a draft once all those Action Hero wannabes get swatted down by Iranian drones and the Canadian troops start rolling in to annex the southern province.
Who knew Fallout would be right about the annexation but wrong about which way it went?

Haha annex. Love it.
There’s a good line from the TV show, I don’t think it was used in the games. It’s in reference to a character that has to travel from Canada to the USA, and someone tells them:
“don’t think of them as humans, think of them as Americans”
