so if we invade iran, which many people seem to think isn't far off, the us armed forces are going to be spread a mite thin.
what are the chances of another draft, do y'all think? and what would you do if one came?
i'm 33, so i'd be above age. but a part of me feels like i should volunteer if they start drafting folk. i'm fairly skilled and pretty tough and not the dumbest kid on the block -- seems like i'd be more likely to make it through than some 18 year old fresh out of high school. maybe i could save a kid by taking his place...
'course, another part of me says a draft means it's time to expatriate: this wouldn't be the america i've spent my life being proud of. my tax money and contribution to society should go elsewhere.
i'm really of two minds here. anybody else out there thinking about this?
