Explain this a little if you dont mind, I'm sure I have the wrong idea of what you mean to say.

The question that comes to mind is, does this mean your in favor of manditory service time in order to vote, get a drivers liscense, a passport, qualify for citizenship and stuff along those lines?

Of course, thats the extreme view of your statement, but the more practical view of it is, does this mean that mean your in favor of the draft for reasons it will build public interest in the GOV's policies?
