Outsourcing We Can All Agree On
The privatization of the military as a means for national defense would not be safe. The disadvantages of private military forces outlined in "Corporate Warriors" includes the lack of consistent humanitarian practices and lack of strict loyalty found in national armies. However, I am in favor of the use of private forces for aiding in foreign countries that are plagued by domestic conflict. It's sad to say, but the American people don't feel that it is our responsibility to interfere in foreign conflicts that don't effect our national security or interest. But many of these conflicts are borderline genocide. Therefore, I would support the use of private forces hired by the U.N. or other international body to enforce peace and create stability in many impoverished. It would be a win-win for the people of the affect nations as well as the countries sanctioning the orders.
