I've already seen some of the Fox crowd calling for periods of national service, arguing that a year of "real work" would be good for today's lazy, screen-addicted youth. I can't see them getting an actual draft reinstated, but I can definitely see them making federal student loans contingent on "National Service." That would have the added benefit of making old people and rich people functionally exempt.
Only for the young people of course, them republican boomers already put in a honest days work. Uphill both ways.
Why can’t you see them getting the draft reinstated?
Rich donors would want their kids exempted.
That was the case before, see “Fortunate son” the song.
