It’s to make sure that Americans are less willing to go to war. If Americans know that they themselves may get drafted, they’ll be more opposed to our Imperialistic warmongering. /

What is the point of a draft if the country is withdrawing from zones of conflict?

I personally don’t favor a draft unless the nation is physically confronted by another large power physically threatening our borders.
