Tony the problem with that is we have found out the hard way that while you can draft a warm breathing body that may have skills needed by the military you cannot draft all of those skills. Sure there are track drivers, carpenters and admin types out there but where are you going to draft a trained gunners mate/tanker/infantryman from? And if they are not trained and competent in their jobs just how many die? Look up the 1st battle of Kasserien Pass where most of our troops were not well trained, or had very low experience levels. Look at the opening days of the Korean War when we were almost driven into the sea.

Would have had months to raise an army and prepare. Now you don't have that time cushion. Today when from the word go could have paratroopers on the ground in HOURS. Today about the only way to avoid having a standing military is unacceptable, that would be to pop a small nuke on anyone who messed with us.
