1. Most soldiers come from middle and working class families.
The repugs think that these soldiers should feel honored to die and be maimed for the benefit of the rich. Must protect oil and other greedy interests. Pay for medical care for vets? That might cut into their big tax cuts. Heaven forbid! How dare they complain! And don't think if the draft comes back any of THEIR children will be in the military.

Sarcasm off.
