91: Stroking the Ugly Stick
Fascism and Compulsory Youth Service Discussion
A personal anecdote involving 83-year-old Dutch in-laws leads to a comparison between current government policies and historical fascism. The mother-in-law, a survivor of the bombing of Rotterdam, likens proposed compulsory youth service in the US and UK to her experiences in 1940s Europe. The discussion focuses on government control of corporations and mandatory national service.
