[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would rather my tax dollars go to military schools to get the kids into some discipline, the military is already having a hard time getting recruits so this makes sense.

Hard labor camps ??? To the above poster, this is not a backward third-world country, geez, what backwater state are you from? A forced labor camp sounds like North Korea. People's train of thoughts demonstrates where they fall on the socioeconomic scale. [/quote]

So you want to ruin the military we count on to defend our Republic by using it to try and fix (and fail) defective, amoral criminals? That seems like a good idea to you? Yes, the military needs help meeting recruiting goals right now. The way to fix that is to pay junior enlisted members a lot more. If a recruit earned $90k/yr right out of basic training, the recruiting shortfall would literally end overnight. High school grads would be competing for an enlistment spot. That’s how you solve recruiting problems - not by flooding our military with criminal scumbags.

Yes, we should absolutely have “hard labor camps” where criminals are forced to toil 12 hours a day. It’s prison. It’s supposed to be punishment. It provides a strong incentive for reforming criminal behavior by creating an overwhelming desire not to be sent back. [/quote]
