The thing that amazes me is how frequently the US engages in foreign wars, when the vast majority of the US population, even those who vote, do not want war.
There was a decent (but one I still disagree with) argument made once for bringing back the draft, as a way to make the actual bloody practical cost of perpetual war felt by the average person, perhaps in the hopes that they would become less frequent. Slavery is slavery though and it's only a thought experiment.
Say no to war, and say it loudly. Don't work for or with people who support or supply wars.

Violence is the last refuge of the incompetent.
