Why force voluntary services? in 2009 63.4 million Americans volunteered by choice. Forced serivce is unnesecessary, why force Americans to volunteer when we already have so many americans who willingly volunteer for the United States. They put their life at risk for the people who are able to be at home with their loved ones. People would feel obligated to do it, rather than it being because they were honestly a caring and giving person. What about training? Whats gonn happen for the people who need trainng? Are we going to have to pay for our own training when really it shoud be the other way around? What about if the end up in a postion where there putting their life, and someone else's life is at risk. People are more athletic than others, and with some people is a natural instict. Some of the people may or may not be able to preform at the same level as other people. …show more content…
Their going to fall through becasue thats there job, if the goverment is just having people do it for free then there going to loose out on money. Thats there job thats their way of income. So whats going to happen to them, there just going to have to find another job because people took over their's thanks to the goverment. See its things like this that people dont understand, your putting other people's lives at risk due to trining.The hard working are going to end up job less because everyone is just doing a bunch of free work, and taking over there income. The quality of work is just going to go down the drain because, now people feel as if they have no choice so it's more of a "lets just get it over with already" type of situation. So that's why i feel as if we shouldn't inforce volunteer work and make it to where people are obligated to do it. Because America is already so great that we have so many, kind hearted people who will do it out of the kindess of their hearts, and not because they have
If another person relies that you are getting paid without working, they are going to think that they can do the same. They are now able to collect money from the working class, for as long, as they are unemployed, for doing nothing. After a while, welfare recipients may get the mentality that won’t ever have to work again. Why? Because the government keeps robbing tax payers of their money and handing it to individuals who feel the need to do nothing because they know they will still get money regardless.
If we institute mandatory military service, it would increase service personnel and decrease the number of tours that our soldiers need to
Yet, I do agree with the National service idea I do have A problem with violating someone 's free will to express their own rights and once if they do not choose to participate in this type of service or training even though it could benefit their country and themselves in the long run. Even though people that fall in this category have other options and forms of education that could be just as helpful to their country without participating in a national service. Not everyone is fit for this type of joint service for basic factors of maybe Low skill quality ,Anxiety, depression, or just any motional demand for that type of job could bring physical and mental stress to people that are pursuing that type of
I feel that the military draft should be mandatory for individuals to perform at least a year for public service because I think it will benefit the communities by helping and to volunteer to make the communities a better place to be. The consequences that the military draft to be mandatory for individuals to do public service is that in the future, the citizens of the communities would eventually make protests and claim that they should not be obligated of what they should do. I think that both men and women should be mandated to military service so that it would be equally fair for both genders. I think the program would not fit within the American notions of liberty for the reason that it has to do with someone 's way of life, behavior, and
A common view of politicians about Veterans Affairs and the money tied up in it is that the United States has put too much money into the well-being of veterans coming home from war. The United States is already in a spiralling debt crisis and currently the United States does not need any more debt on the shoulders of Americans. According to Forbes, “the federal government has accumulated $18.2 trillion of debt” (Patton). If the United States were to invest more money into Veteran Affairs, that would mean that money would have to be cut from other programs in the budget to prevent even more national debt. If money were to not be cut from other programs, the national debt would drastically increase or taxes would skyrocket.
Furthermore, veterans have sacrificed their lives and many other things to protect their country, therefore they deserve better healthcare. Many risked their lives to protect the people at home. “Many people know what the words Loyalty, Duty, Respect, Selfless Service, Honor, Integrity, and Personal Courage mean. Soldiers learn these values in detail during Basic Combat Training (BCT), from then on they live them everyday in everything they do — whether they’re on the job or off” (Living the Army Values). Soldiers risk their life to do active service, because of those words.
I think that I would like to be on a jury and experience what is required of a juror, I think everyone should be a member of the jury at least once in their lifetime. Having to experience the juries’ duties on a civil or criminal case, in some instance would be hard. Especially in a murder case involving children or battered women. When the judge gives you direction to please disregard that statement. How can you disregard information that you have heard?
I have a motto: Everything is a spectrum. I find that it is true in many cases and it helps me see things not as black and white, but as a gradient between the two. The issue of child soldiers’ prosecution is complex and doesn’t have an easy answer. Child soldiers must be assessed individually for their responsibility for their actions and their threat in the future and should be given options other than freedom or prison. Responsibility should fall on whoever knowingly, willingly, and with intent carried out or caused the crime in question.
Parents always talk about them having a bad childhood and don’t want their kids to go through the same thing as they did. Child soldiers don’t even get the option to have a childhood. This is why they deserve amnesty. Kids should get to start thinking for themselves. But they are bought, kidnapped, drugged and terrorized into doing terrible things.
Boom! A bullet goes into an innocent citizen’s head. Everyone gasps. Who would do such a thing? An enemy?
With that being said there are always those that are exempt from military service, as well as those who cannot be exempt and will inevitably have their livelihoods changed for the worse. Due to evidence presented in previous conscription efforts, possible economic effects, infringement of civil liberties, and other priorities, a mandatory military conscription should not be a possibility in the United States. There have been many occasions in the past in which a mandatory
Suppose you are asked to a favor for someone you know, and in return you would be fairly compensated. This favor includes the delivery of a heavy luggage bag to a location where someone will take it from you. Pretty easy favor to get paid for, right? Well this favor could have you facing a mandatory minimum sentence of 20 years in the federal prison system. Contained in the bag was 10 kilos of powdered cocaine.
The United States should call for mandatory military service to ensure the freedom and liberty for the children of tomorrow. A lot of people do not know the United States has called for mandatory military service before, just with a different name, the draft. The draft has been “employed by the federal government of the United States in four conflicts: the American Civil War, World War I, World War II, Korean War, and Vietnam war. “This makes five different occasions when Americans were drafted for a total of 16.5 million people” ( Random Fact of The Day 1). 16.5 million people were drafted and under 1.25 million died in these wars, which is about a 7.6% death rate.
Volunteering should be done intrinsically. Many students find community service so difficult, time consuming, and not enjoyable. Therefore, they tend to only complete the required hours without any essential effort. To call mandatory community service 'volunteering ' is a problem because then we begin to confuse the distinction between an activity that is willingly done and something that is obligatory and perhaps not always rewarding. Volunteering should be something you choose to do because you want to do it, not because somebody made you do it.
The effects of volunteering can range from many helpful characteristics. From helping those in need, giving back to the community, working for worthwhile causes, and overall helping someone with their health, mentally and physically. Volunteering can affect many people in different ways, but what most do not know is that it can help with
