This is compulsory service.  It is not like in Sweden, where if one objects to military service, they can choose something else to do.  The government chooses what everyone does, and if it is in the USA or abroad.  It will be introduced as helping in humanitarian causes to get people used to it.  Later this program will be the KGB, Stasi or the Gestapo.  No wonder I have flags from East Germany, the USSR and nazi Germany.

I am not participating, even if I am imprisoned.

Um... There really is no compulsory service in there. This seems to me to be a great bill.

Right, I saw the strikeout. Still, it's not a great bill.

Whoever introduced that should never be re-elected.
