> My distrust of government may well originate in its decision to draft my father into a war with Vietnam that had no bearing, whatsoever, to our national security as well as the decades if suffering the resulting PTSD wreaked upon him and the rest if his family. At the same time, I've seen little evidence since then that Uncle Sam's behavior, at the time, was out of character.
Thanks for helping me to appreciate where you are coming from. I'm sorry about your father and family. I managed to miss the draft by a few years. I was lucky.
