The draft did not "target lower income people".... It was done based on birthdays.
You are thinking about the draft from 1969 and later. Before 1967, you were at the mercy of the draft board. You either got a college deferment, had a family, or were in a "necessary" occupation. That definitely skewed their picks toward the lower income men.
