| In the UK the Conversatives have called an election and it is specifically bring about National Service, in which Patriotic Britains get employed by the Government and are called upon to do What Mao, Stalin, and Pol Pot did have them do stuff like work in the fields of farms, work on the streets filling pot holes, and taking care of the old people that voted this into power. Do you support this sort of Collective Public Working? |

| I'm not sure if we're talking about the same thing, but Singapore does have national service. Do I support it? Not really, it was forced upon us. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_service_in_Singapore |
| @Rhae Lots of nations have National Service. In some nations in Europe you either serve in the Military or have to become like a Firefighter or something like that. Have to pay a pretty big fine if you don't wanna do it. |

| @vasipi4946 It works the same way here too. "Penalties for NS defaulters, NS defaulters are punishable with a fine of up to $10, 000 and/or a term of imprisonment up to 3 years." |
| I dont think anything that places someone's health on the line should be mandatory but Im not too bothered by other forms but Im not sure they really even would be necessary if you make the jobs easier or overall more enjoyable and make employment and changing jobs an easy process. |
| No, I do not advocate compulsory labor...especially not working for the government. *facepalm* |
 |
| we have it here in the philippines https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Service_Training_Program sure its part of teamwork or collectivism anyway but i hate the military part of it |
| You better ask your government what they did with tax money supposed to be spent on infrastructure and social projects. |

Do you support National Service Only if it's voluntary and gets paid properly. |
This dance is the pinnacle of human achievement. |

| @Zarutaku Have you ever heard about a thing with words "national" and "patriotic" in its advertisement that appeared to be voluntary and well-paid lol? |

| 1) Are the Tories TRYING to lose the general election?! 2) I'm not really in favour of collective public working if it's state-mandated. While I do agree that maintaining farms, roads, and senior citizens are importantly, not everyone is cut out for such tasks. First, the quality of the services would be called into question. Second, other parts of the economy can also be affected negatively. I do think think the policy may be effective when combatting unemployment, but then there's also the question of long-term employment and skill development. Would they be addressed appropriately? |

| Conscription and forced labour is slavery. Simple as that. |
 This ground is soiled by those before me and their lies. I dare not look up for on me I feel their eyes |
| To the OP, it is all just a grand conspiracy by a group of super-evil, elite people, the whole time. Here is the proof... https://collapseofindustrialcivilization.com/2013/10/08/the-conspiracy-is-systemic-and-legalized/ Consider the following, red-pilled quote... ""What if the wealth created by such an economy is amassing at the very tip of this pyramid scheme while leaving those below to fend for themselves in a world depleted of its resources and poisoned by industrial waste. Would such a grim reality be considered a conspiracy theory?"" Here is another nice article worth reading. https://collapseofindustrialcivilization.com/2012/06/09/an-economic-and-social-system-that-undermines-life-itself/ Consider the following quote... ""It’s important to keep in mind that at the root of industrial civilization’s problems is an economic system called capitalism which requires infinite growth at the expense of our global life support system, the earth. The end game is a spent and destroyed environment in which a small global elite control the overwhelming percentage of the planet’s extracted wealth while the vast majority of the world’s population exist in squalor and debt peonage. The social hierarchy of our system can be visualized as a large pyramid with the wealthiest of society represented as the eye of a thin needle sitting atop the massive base that represents the rest of humanity. It seems the only impediment to capitalism is its own unstoppable path to self-destruction."" |
| Hm, well, it is not the path that I have chosen. |

| @Kwanthemaster serve your rich, good-for-nothing masters. Die in pointless wars. Which are all pointless when there is no more people on this planet in the near future. |
