Does RFPTFA need its own page, or should discussion of it be included in this one? -Moorlock 00:41, 9 March 2006 (UTC)

POV - "bloated military spending"? Bias creeping in there. Perhaps "bloated" in the US - I don't know - but here in the UK it's quite the opposite: funding is very low and resources are overstretched. Panlane 08:24, 31 July 2007 (UTC)

This article is almost exclusively US - although the references are wider - and does not deal with war tax resistance, that is a form of resistance as civil disobedience rather than seeking legal provision for conscientious objection. The point about "bloated military spending" is that those who conscientiously object do regard military spending as "bloated" - in Britain where it absorbs resources that could be used for social ends as well as in the USA.
