Don't worry about the lives lost; I'm sure the widows feel much better when they find out it's only a fifth of the lives lost in Nam.
Well... more widows = more pissed off people. Especially if their husbands didn't enlist, but were drafted...

There's plenty of rallies in DC; I'm going to one at the end of the month. Wanna come?

Somehow I doubt the majority of youth these days are even opinionated enough to protest.
But if they were pissed off enough, say by a government that gets caught lying, in a major media scandal, and doesn't apologize, or by their friends getting pulled into a jungle to die, maybe they would. Maybe they'd become hippies.
