Rangel's just making a point: if the U.S. is going to war, every family should be prepared to sacrifice. If they're not... if they're only in favor of the war if somebody _else's_ son or husband or daugher or wife goes... maybe something like a universal draft would make help them to rethink their views.
Personally, I think universal national service is a good thing, as long as there are other avenues as well as the military for the conscripts to pursue.
