People in favor of conscription should be the first to be

That's true for a lot of things. One of my pet peeves
is law-and-order (that's pronounced as one word,
"lawnorder") suburbanites angrily voting for new
prisons and "get tough on crime" laws, then furiously
opposing the construction of prisons near them. New
prisons should always be built in the voting precincts
that voted the highest for the new prisons. If that
turns out to mean Beverly Hills or Hillsborough or
Pacific Heights, then so ****ing be it.

You obviously haven't studied my penal system proposal!

If it involves sending the criminals to Australia, count me in.
