They know the young won’t vote for them anyway, so they’re hoping this will do something to stem the tide with the rest of the population who would not have to do the service
So they’ve decided to possibly sacrifice the young in the name of getting the middle and older aged peoples votes? And the only other policy proposal I’ve heard from him is flying people to Rwanda to “fix” immigration?
Jesus Christ your politics suck. Hopefully, yall vote them out and fix things a bit.
It’s honestly got a lot in common with your politics, in many ways. Our Labour party isn’t looking likely to do much good, but holy shit it would be nice to at least making everything worse in the sleaziest way possible all of the time. I personally put a lot of the blame on FPTP voting, although that is clearly not an instant fix in itself; the Dutch are doing a fine job of demonstrating that
It’s worse than that, they have an existential crisis due to older voters not wanting them. For decades as people got older they started getting more conservative (small c) in their views. This has stopped happening on a scale that it once did.
Their voters are literally dying and not being replaced. It’s mainly because people around the world have not been able to generate wealth and assets to the extent that generations before them have.

What kind of older person thinks “Hell yeah! I want to send my kids off to war!”?
People who know that their own actual kids won’t be sent. Just the poor kids whilst their own kids get bone spurs.
People who’s kids have grown up but are too poor to be able to have kids of their own?
