Assuming you haven't served in the military (I haven't either but I come from a military family), your country doesn't owe you anything. Go live in North Korea for a year where you have essentially no rights, and we'll see if you still have the same opinion

A family of idiots. How does it feel?
-
I'm proud of my family. How does it feel to have your rights, you ungrateful asshat?
-
You shouldn't be. Feels good. Feels even better knowing my country doesn't need to go to war to protect it.
-
I hope you change your mind about our military one day. But I'm not wasting any more energy on you

Fine, let's say my country doesn't owe me - which you're right, it doesn't. America is a land of opportunity, not immediate gratification - but if my country wants its citizens to succeed and have bountiful careers, build families, make money, keep an economy rolling, and basically improve its reputation by putting better stuff out (for me, I want to go into the film business) - then the last thing I want them to do is strip away the opportunities I've been given by getting a college education and eventually getting a career, a family, a home, etc. and put me overseas in a war I have no business being in. In my eyes, that's just slowing me down from doing what I can to help the country, not speeding that process up.

I get that it would be a sacrifice. I also see you have big goals. But if getting drafted means you keep your freedoms and privileges and you can still pursue your dreams of being in film, but it's delayed by a few years, wouldn't that be worth it?
