Satire? Serious? Practical?
The bottom line for the draft in any of it’s forms is, “involuntary servitude”. I think the military has realized that an army of slaves takes a lot more training, management, and resources than a volunteer army.
At this point only political hustlers and those who find it easer to shuck and jive than solve our society’s problems are in favor of any form of slavery in order to “earn” full citizenship.
It might also be noted that those who are the strongest advocates of a “draft”, are themselves somehow exempt from the burden they would lay on others.
