In some countries, every young person must serve two years in some form of military service. The United States Congress has, fro
m time to time, considered a similar policy for our country. Write an essay stating your position on this issue and supporting it with convincing reasons. Be sure to explain your reasons in detail.
I personally agree with this. However, only in certain conditions. If the United States was put in another World War or something to where it was fought on the homefront of very close and the U.S. was losing, they would have to do it in order for our country to survive.
The United States should not pass this without a VERY good reason. Although people should volunteer to risk their lives for our freedom and safety, It should not be required. There are some people who just are not fit for combat and some who should not be put through it. It should be a choice.
This country is about freedom. Being forced to join the army or military would be the opposite of freedom. This is supposed to be a country where the people rule, not where they are forced into combat. However, as stated before if it was ABSOLUTELY needed for us to survive as a country then it would be acceptable.
