Have the Neo-cons put enough people in poverty and got enough Army recuiters for their next war for profit?

no it's the liberals' job to do that & tax us more to pay for it top 1% of taxpayers, those who earn above $388,806, paid 40% of all income taxes in 2006, the highest share in at least 40 years. The top 10% in income, those earning more than $108,904, paid 71%. Barack Obama says he's going to cut taxes for those at the bottom, but that's also going to be a challenge because Americans with an income below the median paid a record low 2.9% of all income taxes, while the top 50% paid 97.1%. Perhaps he thinks half the country should pay all the taxes to support the other half.

The two go hand-in-hand. It is a tactic used throughout the millennia; keep the masses economically disenfranchised and they will flock to the military. Politicians and recruiters are more than willing to exploit the hopes and dreams of mostly well-intentioned youth from humble origins who are looking for a way out of poverty. According to a 2007 Associated Press analysis, "nearly three-fourths of [U.S. troops] killed in Iraq came from towns where the per capita income was below the national average. More than half came from towns where the percentage of people living in poverty topped the national average." Here's a Star for you. Great question.

that was their plan.

its been a volunteer war since the late 60's. man how can we further blame bush for that? i'm sure someone will think of something! Mc Cain is not Mr Bush. saying: people are identical is the most ~narrow~ minded thing I have ever heard of in my life!

No fortunately, not, and that's why McCain is talking about reinstituting the draft, so many more innocent people will die for the profiteering warmongers.
