Should Congress seek War Tax + Draft?

Actually, I've listened to his reasoning, and "on the surface" I can't fault his logic.

I "prefer" the all volunteer force, but that doesn't mean his concept doesn't have merits.

I remember reading a Heinlein novel, and it discussed a draft alternative which removed War Powers from Congress completely, placing it directly to the People by popular vote, with the following.

1) Those who vote YES to going to war, are IMMEDIATELY (report following day, directions on back of ballot) enlisted into the service. If you are willing to send troops into combat, you should be willing to go yourself.

2) If you do not vote (abstain), you are subject to the FIRST draft/conscription.

3) If you vote NO, you are subject to the SECOND draft/conscription.
