Does anyone know the consequences of refusing to join the forces after being drafted by selective services?
I know the draft hasn't been in vigor for more than 10yrs now, but the law is still there and they can reinterate it whenever they want.

The draft ended in the early 1970s. It was a campaign promise by Richard M. Nixon. Today it would be political suicide for any politician who would reinstate the draft. Charles Rangell brought up the idea earlier this year and was told that we don't need it. I was already serving in the Marine Corps when Nixon ended the draft and it had no impact on me. There were so many people who avoided the draft by deferments that very few people that I knew were actually drafted.

Cannot get any federal money/loans and depending on state may be denied state money/loans....I think technically can get hit with jail time too..that is if you do not sign up with slective service
If you ARE drafted and refuse you go to prison unless you can get them to agree with an exemption
