Message | I am speechless with rage. I am too mad to explain why this is a terrible idea. Although the worst part is that there are people who need it explained. |

Message | Dear o dear what's the matter here. The SLPdoesn't see why everybody is against this so far. Our youngsters fulfill for once something for the community and every politician is uproar. Apparently the subject is under a taboo. The proposal will strengthen the national identity instead of only a regional one. Secondly it will serve the community. A few examples what can be done: Public parks will be better kept, chewing gum removed from the pavement, no graffiti on the walls anymore, doing shopping for our disabled etc etc. What's wrong with that ? |

Message | What's wrong with it is that it implies that the government has the right to take people who have done nothing wrong and force them to work for the state in a manner dictated by the state. It is a fundamental and offensive infringement of the natural right of self-determination. |
