What's wrong with that? They had a pretty squared-away society.
I'll tell ya, when I was a mere high schooler, I thought military service was about the worst thing one could do (as a means of employment, that is). However, now that I am in the military, I can tell you that many of the country's troubled youth would greatly benefit from some harsh drill sergeants and a year or two of military service.
I truly believe it would do nothing but help this country.
Mind control at it's worst.
