Public service should be tied to graduation requirements for secondary school instead. Some schools already practice this routine and it is an immense benefit to the majority of students. One school I interned at required about 30 different hours a year, and each year the category of assistance had to be different. Kids worked in homeless shelters, drug rehabilitation centers, and even city jails. Wish more big-whig politicians had that experience growing up around "welfare queens."

Isn't getting more bodies into the military without a draft what dismantling the safety net is for? Limit choices for those who already have so few but whose life could also help an agenda, making money for someone somewhere.

The economy is horrible, everything is so bleak, society is ashamed of you for needing help especially if you get it from the state-without being trained to kill in other countries.If you need assistance go to church and/or join the military, then you can respect yourself because we will.

Like Islam is used to persuade some Muslims to fight whoever is deemed the enemy of those in power and point at someone other than themselves to blame for their problems that society is told to be ashamed of them for so does corporate, pro-military mass communications network falsely connect popular American values (depending on the audience will also call them Christian) to the choices they want you to make which these same people/their sponsors want you to think of as namby pamby enabling left wing themes outside of the church or military.
Why does the government need to raise adults again?

If we went mandatory for national service, the only choices 18-20 yr olds would have for the real world experience and to nobly help and protect the American people to make better Americans would be what branch of the military they wanted to join. Then there would probably be programs created in elementary school and junior high to help prepare you for mandatory time, similar to tests.

Moms aren't going to have any say in changing that. All communication is watched, right? you can protest all you want, unless its decided you're more useful making money for some private jail but if it doesn't get on tv or the internet, it also doesn't exist.

Not meaning to ascribe any intent to the op with this reply but what I wrote is what it made me think of, so I disagree.

Meh, no thanks.
