Actually she might be right in some twisted off-hand way...
Back when there was a draft, military service could be thought of as involuntary indentured servitude that had the distinct possibility of injury or death. Therefore it is based on the philosophy of altruism, the foundation of socialism!
Now that there isn't a draft there's no problem, if you are nutty enough, or buy into some whacky Gawd n country schtick
you can offer yourself up on the sacrificial altar for someone the likes of Barack Hussein Obama Mmm Mmm Mmm
to decide if you should go to some country filled with brown people, kill them and run the risk of getting blow'd up with an IED.
If I were King for a day I'd make teaching Ayn Rand's
objectivist epistemology mandatory for all grade school children.
Then when shiite like the ACA or the chance to offer yourself up as a sacrifice to the military industrial complex came along
everyone would say: get thee heck away from me!
