Obama Signing Ndrp

[Lumps]

I didn't see a thread on this even in the tinderbox. It is a good subject for discussion for Americans in general regardless of politcal stance.

Raises a lot of questions. What do yo guys think about this? I am in the age to be drafted but medically I would not pass examination. I have a brother that would though and while it might not be probable, it still scared me. The government basically has the power to do whatever the hell they want. Do you guys think anything will change like resource management (like oil)? That would make sense to me, but some of this is pretty scary...full government power.

oh brother

Ok so I guess it's always existed? Either way this doesn't bug you guys at all?

I knew stuff like this existed but not to this extent. I am just ignorant, but in fairness I hate politics.

Seems strange to update it now, making sure it is up to date seems like a minor task unless there is a good chance the policy will be executed in the near future.

If aliens or bin Laden clones are attacking these things will be helpful, and yes you can be drafted in an emergency.
