gong by the "freer the market, the freer the people" logic they objectively are.

I believe it has more to do with every male South Korean's (might be women too now, but I dont know.) serves in the military so they are more likely to take action if need be. I still believe that military service should be mandatory in order to gain the power of citizenship. I really liked that concept in starship troopers, it shows that you actually have a stake in how the country is ran, and you've at least been instilled with some mature qualities from your training.

Yes, what a brilliant idea with mandatory military service when basically all countries are run by insane pedophiles that can send you into a war and die for their corrupt schemes. Take 9/11 + Afghanistan as an example, take the fake claims about Saddam Husseins WMD's that lead to the invasion of Iraq, Lybia and Khadaffi.
They control the military from top to bottom, there won't be any revolts and 99% of all soldiers are molded into being order-followers, not independent brilliant thinkers.
The only thing that can unfuck this situation is if people stop paying taxes and form their own massive armed resistance movements to forcibly remove these people, and that won't ever happen because a vast majority are LEMMNGS who follows and like to watch sports and show their latest lunch on Facebook, they are not interested in rocking the boat because it would require a huge sacrifices and loss of comfort, and even death in a lot of cases.
This whole thing isn't a handful of corrupt people, it's a system that is global and has been in place for thousands of years. Those who control it only allow people who play ball to reach the visible top levels of power (which is an illusion, these people are unknowingly/knowingly PAWNS)
This isn't a movie, it's a situation where 99,9% of us are slaves while thinking that we are free and being unable to see the chains and prison due to ignorance, so I'd rather not be forced into being an expendable warrior-pawn under the command of these fucking people.

the fact that the idea came from a movie is somehow meant to discredit it? The people in that system were not forced to go into the military, they were given benefits for their service, such as the right to vote. It was not given simply because you were born into a country. I would think that other benefits would be things like welfare. I could see that actually helping with our immigration issues actually, you first must serve the country before the country serves you, and this is somehow a bad thing?

They want us to accept pedophilia. Bring back the death sentence for pedophilia!

My thoughts exactly. We're becoming pathetic.
