The poverty draft and not fully understanding what they’re signing up for is real. I grew up in an area where the public school students were majority children of Mexican farmworkers. It was in late 2000 or so, but I’m still shook by my classmate who tried to get me to sign up for the army. “Man, all we do is hang out, drink beers, and get paid.” Never knew what happened to him after that, since I moved away shortly after.
