Should the draft be reinstated?

No - today's military is and should stay an all-volunteer military.

Know it or not - even in a time of war, a lot of people are enlisting in the Army, Air Force, Navy & Marines. No one needs to be forced.


MP US Army
No

We should reinstate the Militia act of 1792 (updated to allow all races to serve of course, and update to current technology.)

It would require every male citizen between 18-45 to own a 5.56 Semi-Auto rifle that accepts standard magazines and a back pack. They would train twice a year without pay and will be called upon when needed by the President.


QBeing
No, it is not needed.

I like Mp US Armys idea, Had not even thought about that option.

Vet-USAF

Yes, that way the sons and daughters of republican senators would have to go...

By the way, MP US Army's idea is called "Switzerland".

as long as we have plenty of brave men and women willingly to join the service and keep the quotas for our military filled there will never be a need for the draft .And even before they ever reinstated a draft I think they would consider granting more waivers from previously disqualified people who were willing to join but were denied enlistment due to their backgrounds

No. Not needed. There is no viable contingency whereby we would need massed troops with armored and artillery support to move to contact against similar massed troops of an enemy. That contingency ended on December 24, 1991.

It won't have to be if the volunteer service is attractive enough. The military does offer many incentives for enlistment. The educational benefits are great. The pay is not bad either. Let's all face facts. If 9-11 never happened, we probably wouldn't be in Iraq today. Right or wrong, the US military is there because of terrorism and many service men and women join because they want to fight terrorism.

The government doesn't own us, it's supposed to serve us.

instating the draft is always wrong. if a war is being fought by unwilling soldiers then it isnt just under the terms of Just War.

the draft is slavery.


Steve is cool
Yes. It would weed out a lot of idiots.

Yes it should. Every other county in the world makes you join when you turn 18 so why shouldn't we, besides if it wasn't for Clinton our military wouldn't be spread out so thin. So yes it should so we can the have the peace of mind that we still have a military that can protect us anywhere!
