I'm less opposed to standing armies because a voluntary contract is entered by both parties. I am not a fan of the draft or compulsory service.
My example was an edge case. I expect the government could find a price that someone would take long before they required slavery. But it still stands that it is a potential. I prefer all transactions are voluntary, even if that means you lose your country because nobody is willing to sign up for it's defense.
