Wars could not be fought without drafts / increases in taxes / taxes on defense contractors / small or no increase in government debt

"This is the longest war without a draft in the country's history. It is the longest conflict to be conducted without a tax increase, despite costs that far exceed those of the Korean and Vietnam wars combined. The soldiers and Marines carrying out the fight are being subjected to the shortest of home rotations before returning to combat."
