    They know the young won’t vote for them anyway, so they’re hoping this will do something to stem the tide with the rest of the population who would have to do the service

      So they’ve decided to possibly sacrifice the young in the name of getting the middle and older aged peoples votes? And the only other policy proposal I’ve heard from him is flying people to Rwanda to “fix” immigration?

      Jesus Christ your politics suck. Hopefully, yall vote them out and fix things a bit.

      It’s worse than that, they have an existential crisis due to older voters not wanting them. For decades as people got older they started getting more conservative (small c) in their views. This has stopped happening on a scale that it once did.

      Their voters are literally dying and not being replaced. It’s mainly because people around the world have not been able to generate wealth and assets to the extent that generations before them have.

      Good fucking riddance to them all.

        People who know that their own actual kids won’t be sent. Just the poor kids whilst their own kids get bone spurs.
