After Vietnam, public support for military action was quite low, and the similarities between the conflict in Iraq and Vietnam has impacted the way people look at the war in Iraq.Because of Vietnam, many people became very resentful of the draft, meaning reinstating it will be avoided as much as possible. With voluntary resistant constantly dropping, there is little we can do to keep troop numbers up. Also, as the war in Vietnam became more and more unpopular, many US people became adverse to the idea of trying to fix a foreign government.
