That will soon change come world war three.
I think it would take just that for us to reinstate the draft, a war for national survival.
Nothing less would be accepted by John Q public. Of course, i think people these days are more leary of their leaders, so it would probably take nothing less then being attacked by a foreign nation. Not some rag tag group of nationless wackjob towelheads parking planes into skyscrapers, but a real "formal" attack by a sovreign power dropping manufactured bombs on US soil. That sends a TOTALLY different message, and arguably the only one that would make the draft acceptable to the public.
