It would be reasonable if it included the hard civic service in the book, too.
But today it might fail because only 1.5% are active military. We’d see public school teachers, environmentalists, NGO workers and other left dominated groups say they serve the public, they get to vote.

To be honest, I think we need compulsory military service the way South Korea does. I believe that when they reach a certain age, they have to put in 2 years. I would like to make it “compulsory” if you want the right to vote. I also think we need better war preparations in this country, particularly by building the same type of shelters and giving the same kind of basic training and drills that the Russians put their people through. They’re preparing for a world war and a nuclear exchange. We’re likely to go down with a single EMP strike. But I also want a million dollars, and maybe a supermodel for a wife! So, I’m not too hopeful on the average American giving up their comfort and making sacrifices like that, willing to go out and make the constitutional changes this would require.
