The military has repeatedly resisted a draft. They have enough things to worry about right now without having to also heard a bunch of people around who don’t want to be there no matter how good it would be for them. If we ever get to the point where massive amounts of troops are needed again (which I doubt) then the military might change its mind. Until then, I’d take the advice of the current commanders.

My opinion has nothing to do with the ding bat commanders, but has everything to do with the number of people who I know that came from nothing and became productive members of the country after service.
