I have seen a few articles recently claiming the draft could be back soon, and&it has some&people are running around scared.
So I went to the source, the U.S. Congress (
http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/bdquer...d108query.html|) and this is the information they have on the bill:
<HR>
<A name=summary><FONT face="courier new, courier, mono">
SUMMARY AS OF:
1/7/2003--Introduced.</FONT></A>
<A name=summary><FONT face="courier new, courier, mono">Universal National Service Act of 2003 - Declares that it is the obligation of every U.S. citizen, and every other person residing in the United States, between the ages of 18 and 26 to perform a two-year period of national service, unless exempted, either as a member of an active or reserve component of the armed forces or in a civilian capacity that promotes national defense.</FONT>& </A>
<HR>
<FONT face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif">Ok, quiz time.
Let's assume you are an able-bodied, non-conscientious objector, between the age of 18 and 26. Since this act applies to both sexes, it does not appear that being a woman makes any difference. Let's also assume that this Act is enacted by Congress.
Question:
List two or more reasons why this Act does not apply to YOU.
Have fun,
