It is from a CNN Democratic presidental debate. I don't have a link for the transcript ready. Search for some of those contents and I'm sure you'll find it.
Government-mandated service? No thanks.

> Government-mandated service? No thanks.
Well somebody has to pay for all those socialist programs that both parties are selling... why not enslave, er force, er give a job to the mostly non-voting segment of the population and force, er allow them to work for the government for ten years or so when they get out of high school to save them the stress of having to worry about college education or finding a job. Hey, and if in the extremely super unlikely rare chance that an armed conflict were to break out, we already have a large portion of the population working for the government and can easily replace their mop or broom with a gun and send them off to fight for oil. Finally, this leaves us an out for all the well-to-do children that should avoid any kind of draft or war action since they will already be hard at work doing important government functions such as sorting IRS tax forms for the auditors.

You are a terrible cynic.
-------------------- After one comes, through contact with it's administrators, no longer to cherish greatly the law as a remedy in abuses, then the bottle becomes a sovereign means of direct action. If you cannot throw it at least you can always drink out of it. - Ernest Hemingway If it is life that you feel you are missing I can tell you where to find it. In the law courts, in business, in government. There is nothing occurring in the streets. Nothing but a dumbshow composed of the helpless and the impotent. -Cormac MacCarthy He who learns must suffer. And even in our sleep pain that cannot forget falls drop by drop upon the heart, and in our own despair, against our will, comes wisdom to us by the awful grace of God. - Aeschylus
