OK. If we gotta do it, we gotta do it. I'd prefer not. There is an argument that it is an extremely serious deprivation of personal rights and there is an argument that volunteers will be more willing and do better. So far, volunteerism has worked well. If we get into a real squabble, a draft may be necessary. But during Vietnam, your chances of being drafted were hardly outrageous and od seeing Vietnam were less if you were a draftee than a volunteer. Message 21088425
