It's been mentioned here before, but if there was a draft or some sort of mandatory service, the american public would have more of a stake in international politics. I think there would be less apathy. People would tend to participate in the democracy. Maybe they would even seek out news so they could make informed decisions.

A draft isn't all bad. There is a silver lining.
