I was born in America and now am a Canadian citizen. I’m pretty doubtful I’d die for either country unless their motives closely aligned with my personal value. I do regret that you’ve been downvoted so severely, your general opinion and offer of self-sacrifice is certainly something I’ve genuinely seen in people before and I think it comes from a noble ideal.
The problem, IMO, is that this policy is far too broad and punishing. I much prefer the US approach here which has always been to offer ever increasing carrots - I’m less comfortable using the stick to increase service manpower.
You called people unreliable citizens for… Not wanting to die in a war created by those who will never serve in it. I don’t want to fight nor die for arbitrary borders on the whim of whoever is in charge. Killing someone because you were forced to is disgusting.

Lol, 50 year old who will never have to serve on the frontlines criticizing others for not dying in a war.
I would say you’ll understand when you get older, but I think it’s too late for that.
You’re literally the person that will be sitting back, nice and cozy, while others are out there getting shot and choking on their own blood.
