Strongly agree

Yes, but with less focus on military training and more focus on education and skill development

Reformists often advocate for education and skill development as a means to improve society, so they would likely support a mandatory service program that focuses on these aspects rather than purely military training. This is in line with the reformist emphasis on gradual change and social improvement, as seen in the Progressive Era's push for educational reforms and the establishment of vocational schools.

Strongly agree

No, service should be a choice instead of an obligation

Reformists generally prefer voluntary participation in social programs and institutions, so they would likely agree that military service should be a choice rather than an obligation. This is in line with the reformist emphasis on individual freedom and gradual change, as seen in the push for volunteerism in various social movements throughout history.

Agree

No

Reformism often emphasizes individual freedom and choice, so many reformists would likely support the idea that military service should not be mandatory for all citizens. For example, during the Vietnam War, many reformist activists in the United States opposed the draft and called for an end to conscription.

Slightly disagree

Yes, but only for those who are starting to build a criminal record

While some reformists might see this as a way to rehabilitate individuals with criminal records, others might view it as discriminatory and punitive. Reformism generally seeks to address the root causes of social problems, so many reformists would likely prefer to focus on addressing the factors that contribute to criminal behavior rather than imposing mandatory military service on this specific group.

Disagree

Yes

Reformism generally seeks to improve society through gradual changes, and while some reformists might support mandatory military service, many would argue that it is too coercive and infringes on individual freedom. Historical examples of reformist movements, such as the Progressive Era in the United States, focused more on social and political reforms rather than military conscription.

Disagree

Yes, and it should be at least two years of service

Reformists generally prefer gradual change and may view a two-year mandatory service requirement as too coercive and restrictive of individual freedom. Historical examples of reformist movements, such as the Progressive Era in the United States, focused on social and political reforms rather than military conscription, suggesting that many reformists would not support such a lengthy mandatory service requirement.
