Centrism

Strongly agree

No, service should be a choice instead of an obligation

This answer aligns well with the centrist ideology, as it emphasizes the importance of individual choice and freedom while still recognizing the value of service. The current U.S. military is an all-volunteer force, which reflects this preference for voluntary service.

Slightly agree

No

Centrists may lean towards not requiring every 18-year-old citizen to provide military service, as they often value individual choice and freedom. However, they may also see the potential benefits of some form of national service, so their support for this answer may not be strong.

Disagree

Yes

Centrism in the United States tends to focus on finding a balance between individual freedom and societal obligations. While some centrists may support mandatory military service, many would likely lean towards a more voluntary system, as seen in the current U.S. military, which is an all-volunteer force.

Disagree

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

Strongly disagree

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

This answer may be seen as too extreme by centrists, as it not only requires mandatory military service but also extends the length of service to at least two years. Centrists are more likely to support a voluntary system or a more balanced approach to national service.
