If only. My preferred solution is a 4 year national service. College is a key place to form a friend network, but not everyone gets to go.

National Service means largely:
* Giving people guns and teaching them to kill
* Teaching people to blindly follow orders barked at them by an authority figure
* Enormous potential for mental health problems, including bullying, abuse and suicide
* Wasting 4 productive years of someones life
I'm pretty certain national service is a Bad Idea™
