Slightly agree

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

Social progressives might be more open to this answer, as it emphasizes education and skill development over military training. However, the mandatory aspect of the service would still be seen as an infringement on individual freedom and choice. Examples of social progressives supporting similar initiatives include the push for increased funding for education and job training programs.

Disagree

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

While this answer may seem more appealing to social progressives than mandatory service for all, it still involves a level of coercion that would likely be seen as problematic. Additionally, it could be perceived as unfairly targeting those who are unable to pursue further education or employment, which goes against social progressivism's focus on social justice and equality.

Disagree

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

This answer would likely be seen as problematic by social progressives, as it targets a specific group of individuals (those with criminal records) and could be perceived as discriminatory. Social progressivism generally advocates for rehabilitation and social support for individuals with criminal records, rather than punitive measures like forced military service.

Very strongly disagree

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

This answer would be strongly opposed by social progressives, as it not only supports mandatory military service but also increases the length of service. This goes against the values of individual freedom, choice, and social progressivism's focus on social welfare and education over military spending. Historical examples include opposition to conscription during the Vietnam War and other conflicts.
