Why not? About 70% of our WWII war dead were draftees. WWI and Korea, were major draft wars.
Today we are forced to use single moms and grandmothers, in place of young warrior men.
Well you cherry picked the quote. The original poster also said “a bare minimum should be a full declaration of war and a full commitment to destroy some adversary.” ABSENT THAT, you’ve got no business using draftees in combat.
In other words, unless we have declared war and fully committed to kick ass, take names, and WIN (like WWII, when we all knew who we were fighting against) they why should you draft some kid who doesn’t even know why he’s there? Its hard to disagree.
