No.

And numerically the draft would be just as "unfair" because they would still be taking the same number of people.

The numbers of people in the military have not fallen because of a lack of a draft, they have fallen because people who are in the military are being forced out.

Within the last year we had a number of Air Force Majors who were forced out before getting to their twenty.

We now have the smallest military force since pre-WWII.

Every time some nitwit starts moaning about "bringing back the draft" they are generally trying to do one of three things; They want to do social experiments on them, They want the military to be a parent and straighten those kids out, They want the sixties back again.

There is never any other reason no matter what kind of pretty paper they try to wrap it in.
