    Fun Fact: This section of Project 2025 was written by Christopher Miller.

    You might know him from such things as “On January 5, Miller issued orders which prohibited deploying D.C. Guard members with weapons, helmets, body armor or riot control agents without his personal approval.”

    This has been in place for decades, I had to take it in the 80s in a public school. It’s called ASVAB like the article mentions. This is nothing new.

      In some schools. In my public school, we took practice ACTs and SATs.

      Just because something’s “been done for decades” isn’t a good reason to keep doing it, much less to expand the practice. I mean, 50 years after the draft ended, but men still have to register, isn’t a good reason to sign up women.

        I’m not saying keep it because we’ve always done it, I’m saying it’s always been around. This is to get people riled up about something that’s always existed.
