So... Slavery with more steps?
Slavery, but with overweight incompetent people.
We should use the budget we use to put people through the army to instead have them work on public works projects. Maybe it can just be part of being in the army. Not just farm work but construction work and especially maintenance work.
The government can hire people without making them indentured slaves or trained killers. Well, at least it used to be able to do that
Yeah, but this ensures young rich people have to work an actual job at least once in their lives too.
Young rich people will be driving the heavy farming machinery in air conditioned cabins while the conscripted poor people do the manual backbreaking labor in the scorching sun or freezing wind.
