Ryann Blake · Answer 1

the most suitable answer is D. Some methods for avoiding the draft, such as enrolling in college, cost money.

Explanation:

Education is an expensive commodity and a privilege. To a certain degree in the 1960s and 1970s. Because of this it was mostly the wealthy families that sent their children to the universities. This entailed them certain protection from that job such as avoiding the draft and being g sent to the war front.
