Many people believe that there would be fewer wars with compulsory military 
service. Especially when the army mostly consists of lower-class people, 
while the government is full of upper-class people who are not personally 
affected when they send people to war. Considerations like this are the 
reason why germany has no volunteer army (from 1920-1935 germany had one...).
