The better question is what in the Constitution let’s you think you have a right to governmentally abduct young people and force them into the work you think is best? For extra credit explain how it isn’t a violation of the involuntary servitude except as punishment for a crime described in the 14th amendment.

"Abducting young people?" Are you making the case that was occurring in WWII, when this country's survival was at stake?

Article 1, Section 8.

To raise and support Armies, but no Appropriation of Money to that Use shall be for a longer Term than two Years;

To provide and maintain a Navy;

To make Rules for the Government and Regulation of the land and naval Forces;

To provide for calling forth the Militia to execute the Laws of the Union, suppress Insurrections and repel Invasions;

To provide for organizing, arming, and disciplining, the Militia, and for governing such Part of them as may be employed in the Service of the United States, reserving to the States respectively, the Appointment of the Officers, and the Authority of training the Militia according to the discipline prescribed by Congress;

Now, of course, you’ll employ much hyperbole and try to make the case that “militia” doesn’t apply to “we the people.” Now... extra credit for you... who IS the militia if it’s not drawn from the populace?
