I was considering it too. But my guess is that American
politicians know that an actual wartime draft would be political
suicide. (And unlike some other countries (e.g. Germany) we don't
have it in our culture to accept a peacetime draft. Maybe if
unemployment skyrocketed, we would eventually change our minds.)
