The likelihood of a draft is super slim. It's a super emergency provision that would happen only in dire circumstances. You guys seem to think that anytime an incident pops off, the military has goes into draft mode from the start. That's not how it works. Did a draft happen when soldiers were sent to Kuwait, Kosovo, Afghanistan, Iraq, Africa, etc? No.

If you don't like what the military is doing, blame yourselves, blame your elders, and blame your peers. The military is directed by elected officials. All of us together elected them. That includes all of you with no interest in politics and don't bother to keep up with it or vote. What the military is doing, it is doing at the behest of elected leaders. And some idiots wanna put Trump up there with them.
Uncle Sam, "Hi, we've lost most of our troops in all the fighting and we're being invaded so we're drafting people to help defend the country as a last ditch effort to prevent us from being ruled by a foreign nation." If you're not willing to fight in that situation, you don't deserve your freedom. That would be what a draft would most likely be like in these days. The public would never stand for a draft to occur in an offensive war and the public's general distaste for it since Vietnam. If something like that did happen, we'd all be pretty screwed anyways and there won't be much of a choice for anybody except to fight.
Since the 80's, the military has been an all volunteer organization and the president requires a national crisis to reinstate the draft.
So yeah, those of you hating on the draft clearly have an incomplete picture of what a draft is. You focus in on the forced service like that's all you need to know about it.
Adding women to the draft registry is fine by me.
Just because the Infantry MOS is open to women, that doesn't mean they would be forced to be infantry. The vast majority would not be able to meet the standards and would simply be reclassed to another job that needs more people to fill in. For any job you sign onto the military for, if you don't meet the standards and pass the tests, you will get reclassed to something else. If you sign up to be a medic but fail the tests, they're gonna stick you in another job for the rest of your service term.
TBH, there are a lot of safe jobs in the military.
But hey, it's not like there isn't a double standard already instituted in the military, kappa.
