The strawman article of course makes it a stupid, anti-youth, anti-people idea. France won't do this, for sure it's not going to happen in the US or the UK even if one voluntary aspect (serve a few years and leave with your education debt paid in full) has merit.
The "greatest generation" prepared a real Dagwood of a shit sandwich for the generations that followed. Thank you for saving us from alien fascists. Please finish the job and take the domestic fascists with you when you leave.
- fortran77 7y agoI'm not sure I get your last point. National service program or not, I think the Nation would be better off if after high school, everyone worked for a couple of years. It doesn't have to be a Government service program -- it could be for a private company mopping floors, cleaning windows, washing dishes, serving customers. Then go to college. We'd get much more mature people in college with a better perspective and more open minds.
