Conscription = Slavery ?

[Rotobeast]

With the debate of women registering for selective service, I began thinking about the idea of a draft.

How can it not be considered slavery ?
People (majority of them) are forced into doing something they otherwise would have no part of and will be jailed should they outright refuse.

I really don't see how the Supreme Court could view slavery and conscription as being different.

I know we have some military guys here and I'm anxious to hear your thoughts.
I respect what you've done to help our country and do not feel that anyone is above those of you who've served.
My thoughts dwell mostly on the government's hypocrisy and our freedom, which you've helped preserve.

So.....
