continued.. The service could be college, junior college, a trade school, the military or some of several national civilian services...urban, rural, etc (perhaps the WPA..CCC model), but everyone would do two years in a more structured setting as part of their "growing up" experience.  We now have millions of young men and women at a extremely vulnerable stage in their lives who are, in the truest sense of the word, "aimless."
