Compulsory service and the draft, atleast in terms of this thread are totally different. Being "forced" into service when there is no crisis or war going on is one thing, being drafted DURING a war is totally different IMO. If the government were to re-instate the draft there is going to be a pretty damn good reason for it. That is the point at which the citizens that have been protected and received all the benefits of our great country have the duty to "pay back" the country if asked to do so. Not doing so would be like saying, "I like the freedom that thousands have died to protect, but I wont fight for it."
