    Dude why do you think they had Vietnam?

    Wasn’t enough houses, colleges, and jobs for all of the boomers that were coming of age.

    Cull the herd a bit. Get the ones that couldn’t afford to avoid it into the military. Problem solved.

    Not enough? Have a domestic war on “drugs”, selectively target blacks and Latinos, and give them free housing in a state or federal prison.

      Nah Vietnam was because there cold war was too cold and that’s not good for military industrial complex. 60k people is not really enough to make a huge difference in housing.

        Marijuana is not a drug. I used to suck dick for coke. Now that’s an addiction. You ever suck some dick for marijuana?

        Or maybe Bobby Sagat. Either way.
