Here in Finland we had this kinda thing forever and it’s actually quite popular, so not going to change anytime soon. However, the main issue is that it’s mandatory only for men and excluding some groups like Jehovas Withnesses and those residing in Åland islands.

EDIT: And there is criminal penalties if you refuse. However, no more prison I believe, but a house arrest order rather.

But I believe that the Finnish government supplies a lot of things for citizens? All rishi's government have done is take stuff away
