I am a life long Reagan Conservative, and even I can see the merit to this...

Ha, ha! Hilarious! You forgot to add "and I voted for George Bush, twice." Reagan would be appaled at your's and Obama's "brilliant idea."

The forum is infested with trolls now.

So....you’re a troll if someone doesn’t agree with you?

I think community service is good for our youth. If you don’t require them to do it, they won’t. Besides, it will build their self esteem.

Oh yeah, I'm sure Reagan would be enthralled by your enthusiasm for total Marxism. Are you freaking kidding me?

“As a general rule,” Trotsky has said [6], “man strives to avoid labor. The problem before the social organization is just to bring ‘laziness’ within a definite framework, to discipline it, and to pull mankind together ... The only way to attract the labor power necessary for our economic problems is to introduce compulsory labor service ... We can have no way to Socialism except by the authoritative regulation of the economic forces and resources of the country, and the centralized distribution of labor power in harmony with the general State plan. The Labor State considers itself empowered to send every worker to the place where his work is necessary. And not one serious Socialist will begin to deny to the Labor State the right to lay its hand upon the worker who refuses to execute his labor duty.”

Sub - I think you're right.
