34. I agree a draft is bad but....

The motives of those who point out how removed the populace is from the decisions
their leaders make is an authentic one.

The level of participation in elections by our people is atrocious and that's a direct link
to a population that simply does not care because it is not involved.
For that reason I see a sort of draft for community service a real plus.

There is plenty to do right here in the United States to keep millions busy for years IMO.
