It will absolutely be used again. We are on a rocket sled towards a society that places service to the state above the individual. There will be involuntary service required of kids. Maybe working in a Detroit ER, or maybe militarily. But yes, they absolutely want to find a way to require service to the state.
And many “conservatives” will celebrate it.
If 0bama stays another 4 to 6 years like he said he would, you could be right. But the wave of conservatism that is overtaking this nation, finally, will preclude there ever being a draft again. It is far cheaper to just buy the services needed.
And the term “ involuntary service” is a leftest talking point. I NEVER heard this reference when the draft was ongoing, just talk of doing one’s DUTY. And I was subject to the draft with a winning RSN.
