Đền bù không thỏa đáng

là những người bị cưỡng bách quân dịch,

trích dẫn hôm nay… is from page 134 of the original edition of Robert Higgs’s remarkable 1987 book, Crisis and Leviathan:
No resource (nguồn lực) taken by the government in its war mobilization (huy động chiến tranh) was more precious (quý giá, quý báu), and no one else was so poorly compensated (đền bù nghèo nàn) for his sacrifices (hy sinh) as the draftee (lính quân dịch).
DBx: Yes. Such is one of the many vile (cực kỳ ghê tởm, đê mạt, kinh tởm) consequences (hậu quả) of conscription (chế độ cưỡng bách tòng quân) – a consequence that, in turn, unjustly (không đúng, không công bằng, không chính đáng) concentrates (tập trung) the cost of the government’s effort on a subset of the population and, also, masks this cost’s full size.
A similar consequence occurred during covid. Lockdowners concentrated disproportionately heavy costs on a subset of the population – such as, for example, workers prevented from earning incomes and keeping their job skills sharp, and small-business owners who lost their enterprises and incomes. Being off-budget, these costs aren’t reckoned into the final, formal cost of the covid response.
