| Message | You seem to have littlle reguard for our weak state in the international level. Without a stream of troops Solentia is vunerable, and individuals would only be required to serve in dire times of war. It is also contradictory that you call this act an example of "non-freedom" when your socialist policies have taken away the financial freedom of us all. |

| Message | I think that a term for mandatory service should be 1 month |
