    It would bankrupt the country to add people we don’t need… It would be like a sports team paying to have 10x the players and not be able to put any of them on the field.

    Creating a draft would drive voters to increase the pay and benefits of soldiers as well.

    So yes it could happen. But it is a near 0% chance of happening.
