"Do you think the situation requires us to put every single male and female citizen 18-20 in the military? Do you think dumping millions of green kids on them would help or would it distract the military from it's primary duty." It is an anti-military ruse. This is even as Rengal promoted it. His thinking is that if you force people who are not inclined to volunteer, you will also be forcing a rebellion against military objectives by those who would otherwise be uncommitted either way. If or when our situation requires such a universal commitment by 18-20 year olds, it should require something of equal substantial consequence of the rest of us. Until or unless we reach that point, I will stand totally against the draft.

I just said, that I am not for the draft, UNLESS we are hit again here in the US. But yes, in a greater way, I've always thought that every single male and female citizen 18-20 years old of this country should do some Community or Military work for at least two years out of HS.
