I saw this circulating around and thought it was an interesting read.
Some of these are horrendous, some are funny, and a few made me think “Hmm, maybe not a bad idea”

This was an interesting comment that’s opened my mind a little, so thanks for that.
How about: “conscripts can only be sourced from those who voted yes”?
Why are we talking about conscripts? Modern (western) militaries have largely phased out conscription, and in case of war it’s extremely unlikely that you or I would be given a rifle and sent anywhere.
This is not to say we are (or should feel) extraneous from our armies, they are our means of protection and should be used wisely - just that arguments that involve regular people getting “picked up” don’t have any place in places like USA or Western Europe.
I don’t know where you are from, naturally things change in different situations - but the context here was a proposition for the American constitution.
