He then proposes a form of universal national service. I don't see how this helps to solve the original problem of financing student loans. I also don't see universal national service as a desirable idea. Doesn't government take enough effort, time, and money out of the average person's life already? Why take two of years of everyone's life on top of the burdens already imposed. -Jeffrey Soreff
