The idea that military service in defense of your country is somehow above the idea of involuntary servitude because it is seen by many as a noble role is one that is rooted strongly in our country.
I agree with you if it is to defend the country, however in cases where we go to other countries that have not declared war on us this is where I have a problem. We should never even think to draft when we decide to play world police. We need to look at our current military staffing before we make the decision to be world police not after then decide to use a draft to make up the gap.
