minus-squareJasonDJ@lemmy.ziplinkfedilinkarrow-up0·4 days agoDude 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.
