At least you're willing to admit the military does legitimately need volunteers.

Sure I admit it. If we tried to wage WWII using only volunteers (no draft), we would have had a miserable time.
Just because people have the free choice to choose their jobs (and face it, the military doesn't pay a lot) we have to compete to get employees for military jobs, just as a company has to actively recruit new employees.
WWII was a good cause, despite the need for a draft, and the war against terror is a good cause despite the need to actively recruit soldiers.
And we are all benefiting from Bush's great economy.
