His company holds billions in DoD contracts.&#xA;&#xA;The cost won’t be shared, the contract will be.&#xA;&#xA;The volunteer force is friction. It’s the last point in the system where a young man can refuse with his feet. The empire already burned through that consent. Recruitment collapsed. Wars without victories stopped selling, and the men selling them know it.&#xA;&#xA;So the man building the surveillance grid writes a book about your duty.&#xA;Universal national service is the marketing name. Conscription is the product. Shared sacrifice is the slogan. Karp’s sons won’t share it, yours will.&#xA;&#xA;The volunteer force is the only vote anyone still gets on the next war. They want it gone for the obvious reason.</html></oembed>
