Who needs a draft? (indentured servitude)

Is there no need for a draft when the president can call back service men for 8 years after they leave the military?
Is there still no need for a draft when you start calling back servicemen after 13 years?
Is this not a form of indentured servitude?
What is going on? How thin can we spread ourselves?

Well, considering servicemen know full well that this is a possibility and agree to it, it is nothing more than normal operation.

Find something else to whine about.

Uhhhm, I considered this something of a backdoor draft. If they're calling back non combat and retired people, things are getting streched pretty thin.

Curtis- They know about it for 8 years. Some of the people that are being called up have been out for 13 years. This still does not answer the question of how thin we have spread our military.
