"Since the end of the draft, I think jury service is the only time that our government demands a citizen's personal services. But, for some people even that is apparently too much to ask."

Please explain the moral distinction between the draft, jury "duty" and slavery. (Other than who is the slavemaster.)

I've served as a juror, but I wasn't drafted and I've never been a slave so I can't personally help you much with the differences. However, I suspect that if you ever do get a chance to ask a slave, they'll probably be able to tell you about plenty of differences. ;-)

I got a chuckle out of your attempts to gain attention by being outrageous. But you know, you sound like a Bakunin leftist. Perhaps you would be happier hanging out at a different web site?
