23. I agree w/ pnwmom and I disagree that it will be more 'faire'.

If all people were equal and if we had a government we could really trust, maybe universal conscription wouldn't be such a bad idea. But the way things are, I think it would be used as an opportunity to militarize the whole population. That's something fascists like to do, you know, and it never ends up boding well for anyone.
