To Serve or Not to serve in the Military?

The pros for joining the Army are the education benefits. The US Army developed various programs to assist soldiers and their families who want to begin or complete their educations or to finish paying off their school loans. Secondly You get Army pay which consist of allowances, drill pay and basic pay. Third, The Army offers mortgage and moving assistance for soldiers.

Cons: caveats that are not explicit in the contract when you sign up is that 1. You cant quit , they can send you to war if need be and they can change your contract at anytime without your consent. 

1. If my friend considered joining the army  i would advise that he read the contract carefully and see if that's what he really wants to do because it isn't as easy as he thinks. 

2.The reasoning behind my thinking would be because i searched it up and has to understand all the aspects of being in the army. i would explain that you cant just quit and there's a chance you can go to war. i Would point out that his pay an change and benefits. i WOULD THEN TELL HIM the good parts about being in the army such as the housing assistance, insurance, and education help.

3. Military Debate : Should military service be mandatory ?
Some people said that It should be mandatory military service. Their arguments behind that is
"There's no reason as to why men shouldn't be obliged to serve their country in times of warfare crisis and/or be prepared for hypothetical wartime" This person feels as though if you are living in America as a man, You should fight for our country when there is a time of need. Another argument behind this is " It can also teach us a set of skills that WILL come in handy. I think everyone should go through it once. Service in the U.S should be 1-2 years. We get a lot of freedom from this country we should repay it by fulfilling a military service" This person believes that Serving in the military will teach us skills and if we are living in a free country , unlike others, we should pay our respect by serving .

I Personally do not think it should be mandatory for people to serve in the military because You can't put some random person that doesn't want to be in war out to war. Their lives are at risk when they go to war. why should have to be forced to serve? Not everyone is built for that type of setting. Also, there are plenty of volunteers that willingly want to serve so why should others be forced? Due to the benefits that come with serving, There are more than enough people who want to be involved in the wars, training, and whatever else comes with it. Those who want to serve just has to understand the rules and regulations that come with being in the military such as You cant quit, They can send you to war, They can change your job contract at any time without notice such as your pay, duties and benefits.
