Should the military draft be again initiated?

Asked by john65pennington (29258points) November 29th, 2010

I served my military time in the National Guard and proud of it. It made me realize how important my country is to me. To protect its freedom and citizens. In talking to todays youth, I have realized that most do not have a clue what freedom and the military have in common. That America must be protected at whatever the cost. Military volunteers are at an all-time low. People are being accepted that should not be with their psychological and physical problems. So, what’s the answer? Question: should the Federal Government re-initiate the military draft? A two-fold purpose would be accomplished. People with too much idle time would be taken off the streets and serve a useful purpose. And, crime intervention for criminal activity would be accomplished. What’s your opinion?
