Mandatory Public Service for American Citizens

Introduction

Mandatory Public service in America is a concept that is fairly recent and, as such, has received a lot of backtalk and debate, positive as well as negative. The important thing to relate to this idea is that it was introduced as a measure that may help the younger generations to learn to be more independent, to ensure that their development and growth over time is progressive in a positive manner.
