National Service: Every Citizen Plays a Part

Abstract

In today's fast-paced, impatient American society, more and more citizens are growing up focused on themselves and their individual well-being. With these self-absorbed perceptions instilled in today's working world, its leaders, and their rising subordinates, the idea of country unity is left behind. These perceptions show a growing lack of commitment to national sovereignty and the unified strength of America. Implementing a national service plan in the United States would yield significant social and economic benefits in this rapidly changing country.
