Conscription has many forms. The Civilian Conservation Corps built roads and bridges. Public services. Make them build rockets. Drafted public service does not at all just mean slapping a gun in their hands and sending them to die.

Drafted public service

Because the government is so honest and can never be corrupted to use people for devious things...

Certainly, a fair point. But I stand by a proposed policy of Mandatory Universal Conscription service of some kind. It's the only way we could ever hope to force some patriotism back into our lost youth. The must be forced to understand they DO have skin in the game.

The last time that happened it almost collapsed the economy, destroyed our future and led to those same youths being personally destroyed
