Doc, funny, I was thinking along the same lines per your other thread about the draft, but went a little more with it.
What if they had a draft and no one showed up?
Thinking about it more, I honestly believe it is due to the "time" and not the "war". Think about it. We had a draft for Vietnam, but we don't for the sandbox?
I honestly think that if they enacted the draft, they couldn't carry it out.
