Beware Of Bogus National Broadband Plans > Don't expect anything to really change

said by bear73:

I admire and praise your general sentiment, but must rain a little on your parade. You will never see Federal Military (ie. Active Duty/Reserves) in that position as it is illegal and against the intention of the military and Constitution. You MAY see Nat'l Guard as their job (as stated by Constitution) is to defend the home front. As to them already being paid, they are not paid unless activated, like training weekends or deployed worldwide. So, you aren't saving any money there, unless you pull them back from "over there". and if you do THAT, then you place more stress on an overly stressed military trying to cope with 2 war fronts and overseas basing requirements.
