although if a lot of those places stopped voting democrat they may get adequete policing

But the point is, in these poorer neighborhoods the gangs present themselves as protectors and the only way out

but people scream racism if you want to send police to high crime areas

If these gangmembers start getting mandatory military service its flipping a coin

so the military needs to be seen as a viable alternative

They might take the chance to leave and start a better life

Or they may take what they've learned and return to their old ways

as you have the GI bill those poor areas have no excuse

you can choose to join a gang or actually act like a valuable citizen

and the military is a phenominal force for social climbing

The GI bill would disappear with mandatory conscription

Currently it serves as an incentive to an all volunteer force

free college and veteren health care benefits. seems like the recruiting offices would be turning people away

Paying it out to every 18 year old in the country would bankrupt the US

yeah i agree it would

well, bankrupt it more

but currently

you can sign up and get no student debt plus get training and useful skills (beyond killing)

dont like the health care system~? well you get vets benefits once you leave the service and they look after you while your in

lol

not as good as it sounds trust me

so the 2 biggest issues american youths complain about have existing easy solutions

better than nothing

and better than the uk NHS

we have death councils

who decide if you are worthy of treatment

america your $ decides rather than a faceless beurocrat

I doubt the UK would make you run a mile pacing fitness exam with a broken leg

actually

my mate in the army had to carry on after breaking his leg

as the sgt thought he was faking

lol

he spent the next year in and out of surgery

still walks with a limp

here the doctors guess whats wrong with you

as they have a limit on what they can spend

so its trial and error rather than finding out the problem

Most medicine is trial and error to a certain extent

Though damn I had no idea about the price per patient limit

yes but you know what i mean

they wont run a test unless they absolutly have to
