Didn't screw up my life at all.  Of course I was one of the millions
that returned from that dirty little war.  Furthermore, I feel great
that I was able to do something for my freedom.  Remember, you really
cannot buy freedom with your taxes, you have to give something of
yourself for your freedom!

As it stands right now it would take an act of Congress to reinstitute
the draft.  There would have to be a declared war for that to happen
and the next war would not last long enough for them to institute the
draft again.

Sounds good to me.!
