I want a draft

Mon Sep 05, 2005 at 01:56:26 PM PDT

 I want a draft for America. I want each youth to spend 2 years after high school in a national service working to help America.
  I would like them working on the national parks , our cities,rehab projects and others for the common good.
  If all youth had to do it there would be a level playing field and they would gain many skills if they chose to. Many youths are not ready for college and this could be a maturing time for many.
   In the event of any and all disasters these would be put to use with the tasks they are trained and or suited to. No deferments no excuses , every able bodied youth would help the country for two years
  Do I live in a fantasy world? Update Lets just say they will not be millitary. I said public service NOT SOLDIERS

Drugs from Canada

  This is short and my first and also my second try. First do not hit enter and then tab. I do not learn quickly but I do learn.
   Ok, I constantly read about states trying to push legislation to allow for reimportation of drugs from Canada. Senior groups are pushing for reimpotation. Pension groups are pushing for reimportation.
  All these groups, states, and private citizens are working very hard to allow US drugs to be brought back in to the US from canada.
  WTF, Read it again, Why are they not pushing to,or trying to get legislation passed that would allow them to negotiate for the same price? Each state has rights and licensing powers in this area.
