be required to call for a draft before calling up the Guard or Reserves. Every Guardsman and Reservist knows his obligations when he signed up. Nobody made him do it. He took the Man's money and it's time to earn his pay.
The draft is SLAVERY, pure and simple. The ONLY justification for it would be a threat to the existence of the USA that could not be met by the existing forces.
Even so, it should be as limited as possible. None of this "community-service" crap as an alternative. Especially if it is hypocritically sold as "fairness". It isn't "fair" to draft the first guy, drafting the second guy does not make it "fair", it makes it twice as unfair. Two wrongs don't make a right.
Could the Vietnam War have been pursued for so long without the draft? I don't think so.
