Lets see how popular a draft is id defense CEOs get a 4 star general salary, and the Board all gets 3 star, etc...

Basically, a draft is an effort to avoid paying a market wage for soldiers. If you pay a Blackwater contractor salary for Infantry, you’ll have more than you can handle.

Free market goes right out the window when it’s time for war. Except of course for the defense industry, they can rake it in. They would laugh in your face if you waved the flag at them and suggested they should sacrifice their pay as long as our kids are asked to sacrifice their freedom and their very lives.
