If you see that you don't want to continue in the military afterwards, then don't. A lot of foreign nations have these kind of policies. Graduate from High School and serve a few years. Don't like it? Get out afterwards and get on with your life.

    I think this is a good idea and would help correct some of the people who think that they deserve freedom just because they live here. Get out there and earn your sh*t.
    but thats not at all what this country was founded on..our founders all fought for their lives and country so we in the future wouldnt have to unless absolutely necessary. ill be damned if they will "make" me. Yeah it sounds easy. serve your 2 years and get on with your life...tell that to the ppl forced to enlist and that dont come back, or come back to nothing, with nothing and their lives ruined! It definitly takes a certian kinda person to be in the military and i definitly respect and praise all those actively involved, but forcing ppl into something they may be morally against is outragous.

    Lives ruined? Come back to nothing? What?

    Go thru high school, turn 18, and do two years. That's it. Most people spend that time just d*cking around anyway. It's not like they're plucking you mid-career to go kill people. Hell, while you're in the military, they even give you incentives to go to college! Taking someone who is 42 years old, I can understand the problem in that.

    I think that every able citizen should serve a mandatory 2 year service immediately after high school or upon turning 18 years old. This way you don't really have any obligations or anything else to keep you out. You can still go to college or whatever and if you think that the military isn't for you after that, then get out. You'll still only be 20 and have every opportunity to make the life that you want to live.
