  • The U.S. has not had a draft since the Vietnam War, with military service being voluntary since 1973.

    But former President Jimmy Carter in 1980 reinstated the Selective Service in the event of a “national emergency,” where the registry could be used to “provide personnel to the Department of War and alternative service for conscientious objectors, if authorized by the President and Congress.”

    Trump alone cannot bring back the draft through executive action, as Congress would need to pass legislation to amend the Military Selective Service Act to authorize the president to induct personnel into the military.

    Great album, with some silliness on it too! I believe “Virus” brought me to the album, listening to some obscure internet or satellite radio back then.

    I wanna devise a virus
    To bring dire straits to your environment
    Crush your corporations with a mild touch
    Trash your whole computer system and revert you to papyrus

    Del of Deltron also goes by Del the Funky Homosapien (his original name). Recently been going backwards and forwards from this album, mostly forwards. Couple notables Nobody Can, and one he collaborated on with Amp Sit Ya Ass Down plus a remix to boot Sit Ya Ass Down (Del’Amott Remix).
