This is another example of the Bush administration doing what it does best: taking advantage of disadvantaged people. First it creates an economy of more have-nots than ever before, then it invades a country for reasons it makes up, pressures disadvantaged kids into volunteering because they have few other choices, sends them into a war that creates huge profits for big businesses that defraud the American taxpayers out of billions of dollars, either gets those volunteers killed, injured, or redeployed until they get killed or injured, then "supports" them by ignoring them after surgery or sending them back to the Middle East because the government "needs the numbers."
We desperately need an administration that cares about people who aren't in the top 10% of income and wealth in this country.
