End Selective Service.

Created by P.P. on December 29, 2012

The Selective Service System of the United States of America has not been used to draft anyone into the military in almost 40 years. Despite this, the United States continues to spend more than $20 million every year on this obsolete program. For the 2012 fiscal year alone, the agency itself reports a budget of $24 million (http://www.sss.gov/QUICK.HTM). This is money that might well be spent in other areas of national defense or not at all. If we are at all serious about spending reform, then perhaps we might do away with the Selective Service System altogether.
