Hi Uncle Bill,
The Peace Core would be relatively inexpensive, but the cost of educating and reintegrating the non-volunteers would carry significant cost, as would the cost of removing/delaying the entry of young people into the commercial economy for at least a couple of years. The work force would average 24-65, instead of 22-65, and that is a significant reduct in the number of available employees.
Also, even under the best of conditions, the large majority of young people would probably be pulled into the military which would be very expensive.
