Don't really like the draft. I believe that maybe with the exception of a foreign nation invading US soil, any other war we might fight that lacks the public support needed for an all-volunteer force has a good chance of not being worth fighting. Also if you're not able to drink, smoke, or rent a car, you shouldn't be able to be drafted. Either they're an adult with no personal rights withheld or not.
