| Message | How can we force a person to spend such a time in their life working in national service? That is little more than slavery. We have already expressly banned the slave trade when run by private traders. We must do the same for the government. |

| Message | A short term in the military educates our citizens, it acquires them the great norms and values of our nation, it learns them to love, respect and appreciate their fellow citizens. |
