The Draft

The draft was instituted in 1862 for the American Civil War. The draft was used to force ordinary people to join the war whether or not they believed in the war, whether or not they were in love, whether or not they desired for a different life, whether or no they had children, whether or not they wanted to fight for this country.
As of today it is said that the government has done away with the draft, having the military be strictly voluntary.
Then one must wonder, why, on the bottom of the motor vehicle license form does it say that all eligable males from the age of 18 through 25 must check the yes box or be denied their driving privelage. Instating that they can be drafted for any reason that the government may instate its use.
Creating a readily avaliable form,
Keeping tabs on everyone, .... isn't that right America?
