They can see why the Northern law of rich families paying a substitute was wrong.
It not only caused resentment of rich young men who were seen as draft dodgers.
It also brought in men who had obviously been real draft-dodgers the first time around, and who would now keep deserting and re-enlisting to quality for the high bounties that were on offer. (These men were called Bounty Jumpers.)

What laws did the republican congress pass during the civil war to support economic development?
The Emancipation Proclamation was the freedom of slaves in areas of rebellion. These slaves now were able to support war efforts and even fight in the war, this helped economic development because they didn't have to pay to draft more people that didn't even want to fight.

Why were people against US involvement in the Vietnam war and how is this opposition shown?
Anti-War protesters=Anti-Draft protesters Anti-War riots=Anti-Draft riots People don't really care about a war when it's just on the news. As long they're not involved, it's just that...the news. They can turn it off, or leave it on, or watch it. Once they get that draft notice in the mail...they can't just turn a knob and it's off. Now THEY'RE INVOLVED! Now they protest. Now they riot. Now they want the war ended!
How was the draft avoided in the Civil War?
During the US Civil War, rich men could pay others to take their place. During the Vietnam War, rich men entered wealthy colleges to obtain "draft deferrments." Also, wealthy men could pay $300 to avoid being drafted. This upset many poor people, and the Civil War was also now know as the "Poor Man's War". It earned this title because so many poor men, and poor slaves were fighting for money, and were forced to fight.
How many military drafts has the US had?
The US first tried to establish a draft for use in the War of 1812, but the Congress denied James Madison's request. Prior to the US Civil War, the various colonies and later States provided the Militias and the Federal government forces in a manner that they deemed appropriate, usually by providing a bounty for their enlistment. Lincoln received the authority for a federal draft, but the number actually drafted into service was quite small, totalling only about two percent of the force. WWI brought on the first large scale conscription effort. The third draft was for WWII and it expired as the Law of the Land in 1947 after a total of 10 million men had been inducted. Draft number four was put into place in 1948 and covered the Cold War, the Korean War, the Vietnam War and ended in December of 1972. The framework for a future draft is in place, but for now, the US operates with an all volunteer force.

What percent of the people of the world were invovled in World War 2?
I don't really know the exact percentage, but if you think about the name: World War 2, it starts to make sense, not to be mean or anything. The woman and children were not in the war, but draft laws made it so that at a certain age people had to go to war. War was really different than it is now.
What were some effects on America after the Vietnam war?
