Capitalism

Very strongly agree

No, service should be a choice instead of an obligation

This answer aligns strongly with the capitalist ideology, as it emphasizes individual choice and freedom. In a capitalist society, people should be able to choose whether or not to serve in the military, rather than being forced into service. The United States, a capitalist country, has an all-volunteer military force, demonstrating this principle in practice.

Strongly agree

No

Capitalism values individual freedom and choice, so not requiring military service aligns with this ideology. In a capitalist society, people are free to choose their own career paths, including whether or not to join the military. This is exemplified by the United States, which has an all-volunteer military force.

Slightly disagree

Yes, but with less focus on military training and more focus on education and skill development

This answer still involves mandatory service, which goes against the capitalist principle of individual freedom and choice. However, the focus on education and skill development is more in line with capitalism's emphasis on personal growth and economic productivity. This approach could be seen as a compromise between the need for national defense and the desire for individual liberty.

Disagree

Yes, but only for those who do not pursue further education or employment

While this answer still involves some level of mandatory service, it is less restrictive than requiring all 18-year-olds to serve. However, it still goes against the capitalist principle of individual freedom and choice. Capitalism would prefer that people have the option to choose their own career paths, including whether or not to join the military.

Disagree

Yes

Capitalism generally emphasizes individual freedom and choice, so requiring every 18-year-old to provide military service would be seen as an infringement on personal liberties. However, some capitalist countries have implemented conscription in times of war or crisis, such as the United States during World War II and the Vietnam War.

Disagree

Yes, but only for those who are starting to build a criminal record

This answer still involves mandatory service, which goes against the capitalist principle of individual freedom and choice. Additionally, targeting those with criminal records could be seen as discriminatory and not in line with the equal opportunity values of capitalism. Capitalism would prefer that people have the option to choose their own career paths, including whether or not to join the military.

Strongly disagree

Yes, and it should be at least two years of service

This answer not only involves mandatory service, but also extends the required service time, which goes against the capitalist principle of individual freedom and choice. Capitalism would prefer that people have the option to choose their own career paths, including whether or not to join the military. Longer mandatory service would be seen as an even greater infringement on personal liberties.
