    It‘s not so long ago, that we had that and it seems the realities of it are already forgotten. So much of this civil service was just cheap labour for private companies. I worked in a private eye hospital for a year for example. Then you had a lot of people finding themselves working for the church. It was a pretty shady system and it doesn‘t feel that the generations who went through it are more supportive of a functioning society than the ones who haven‘t. The other argument is pretty far fetched, I‘d say. On the one hand, there won‘t be a civil service incorporated into the police. On the other hand, left leaning people won‘t go to the military, they‘ll choose another service. Like we used to. And then, do the military and the police really serve society?
