[Boiling point]

I think a draft would severely backfire on the left. You see, for a couple of decades now there has been no counter to the leftist indoctrination camps known as "Universities". The military does a good job of instilling work ethic, patriotism, self (not state) reliance, and other Conservative values. IMHO it would be the final nail in their coffin. Good riddance.

I don't care whether or not the draft would backfire on the left. The defense of our country shouldn't be a political issue. The draft should be considered only if it will add to our ability to defend ourselves. At this point, our military leaders don't think it is necessary. I agree with them.
