Question:
1) Describe what is meant by "irony" in the quote, "Ironically, the New Deal was a lifesaver for us personally."
2) Military conscription is described as a tax. Describe the relationship between these two concepts.
3) Some opponents of a voluntary military argued that it would be too expensive to move from a conscription-based system to a voluntary system. Provide a justification for their argument and also propose a counterargument (i.e., why might it be more expensive to have conscription than a volunteer military). Focus on the fiscal aspect of the problem ("too expensive").
4) The movement from conscription to a volunteer military involved tradeoffs. Identify and describe two benefits of the change (towards volunteerism). Focus outside of the fiscal aspect of the problem (i.e., not related to government spending and taxation).
5) Identify an argument in favor of conscription and describe the argument and identify another market where this argument is currently being used in favor of the status quo (i.e., in favor of not changing to a different system).
