besides forcing Congress to pay attention to its constitutional war-declaring and funding, it would hold our humble public servants accountable by making them share the risk currently foisted on a few million, mostly low-income families
 
Why would a child or grandchild be held responsible for actions of their parents or grandparents?


Gawd that was stupid

Since there’s no draft, people who join the military agree to be subject to the political whims of our politicians. Just make sure to keep opposing the draft.
 
They are already saddleing them with a shit of debt. May as conscript them too.

If the parent votes for war, then their kids get to go first. That will make them wise up. We have been in a continuous war since 2001 , if you have not noticed.

Listen Dummy...The US has been in a war for all but 17 years of our
existence. Get with it, Momma.
 
Targeted conscription to exact some kind of political vengeance borders on state sponsored terrorism.

That should go for whoever is presidant to.
 
A draft should be mandatory any time we go to war .

We wouldn’t still be in Afghan 18 years later if there was a draft .

It’s a check n balance .

The conclusion to this train of thought is military service as a requirement of citizenship.

What if it is a small war? One that is over before the wave of conscripts can even finish training?

Vietnam lasted roughly 20 years with a draft

Still . Even if it’s a small draft, it will make lawmakers think twice about unjust wars .

US bailed before that . And the public pressure because of the draft really helped get us out.
