I see it as an opportunity for a lot of underchallenged, spoiled young adults to receive some discipline in their lives and do some good for their fellow citizens. If not as a uniformed military person, as a paid worker on projects where there is a social need; the poor, the sick, abandoned or abused children, etc. It might just reduce the crime rate as well over time.

I have to agree with Pat. Underchallenged, spoiled young adults will quickly change their tune when they can't find a job or get paid very little based on their poor job skills and lack of work ethic.
Further, make sure that laziness is never rewarded by means of a government program. That means no welfare, no EITC. If you are lazy and worthless, work it out on your own. You're not my problem or any other taxpayer's problem.
The last thing this country needs is the government getting any bigger. Plus, adding more disfunctional workers to an already disfunctional government doesn't sound too appealing.
