There is seriously nothing wrong with mandatory service to your country/community. I am all for it. I think you should have a choice when you graduate high school too. Either do a few years in the military or spend a few years doing community/volunteer work. Might motivate the whinny, pussified youth of this country. Might show them what it means to work for their buck....

Could the House be "looking at this" in order to deal with the bigger issue of finding a remedy to social security (I know... that seems obvious). They've been trying for years to fix social security, but there's no momentum to fix it by the general public, or even government officials.
By "listening" to the idea of taking people's 401ks and IRAs, the House is going to draw a lot of attention and anger. They know that they would never be able to get to people's 401ks and IRAs and the people know it as well. (Too many educated middle and upperclass people to let this happen)
So, by the House "listening"... they're going to draw in a lot of attention and angry people... Potentially people willing to work with momentum on the social security problem to feel as though they are ensuring their 401ks and IRAs are safe and will remain untouched.
Thoughts on this please...
Social Security Problem
No Involvement from Public on Solution or Even Care
Hear Out Radical Idea to Take 401(k)s and IRAs from the People for Redistribution
Get People Listening
Get People Angry and Wanting to be Involved to Protect their Money
Gained Momentum, Public Concern, and Fear to Solve Social Security Problem
The People's Money Remains Untouched and the Problem Addressed

The 401 K was basically someone saying "yes the Boomers have bent you over, but as a consolation we wont tax you on 4000 a year so your not living on bread crumbs after the SS system has crashed.."
Congress confiscating 401K's is just gonna f something else up too...
Also those of you into this mandatory volunteerism should maybe look into the 13th amendment of the Constitution..
Don't get me wrong, I think folks should serve their Country but requiring it is wrong.. No matter how you pretty it up with talk of sharing your cookies..
SS(Social Security) is F*d up because Congress used it as their own personal expense account for several years (don't have the money to do it... take an IOU from SS ever see the movie dumb and dumber?) , SS has been running on the backs of our kid/grandkids for years. Anyone not a boomer has been raped.
