Hmm ... No Draft?

So President Bush said October 5, 2004, "America's all-volunteer military is the best in the world, and reinstating the draft would be bad policy. We have increased pay and benefits to ensure that our troops have the resources they need to fight and win the war on terror. I want every American to understand that, as long as I am President, there will be no draft." Yet 3 years ago the Defence Department started a database of 30 million 16-25 year olds with GPA, Social Security numbers, email and phone numbers. With the recent decline in recrutment I would not be suprised if a draft would soon be enivitable.


Good thing the the people seem to oppose it.
