4. ok, by your own admission

drafts can be ok "for dire emergencies." this is clearly very different from actual slavery, which is not ok under any circumstances.

also, it's not quite as clear as you make it--there are conscientious objectors, for instance.

and lord knows i agree with you about *wanting* to get drafted--my reasons for being ambivalent about the draft are political ones, not personal ones.
