Slightly agree
Yes, but with less focus on military training and more focus on education and skill development
This option might be somewhat appealing to the VVD due to its emphasis on education and skill development, which aligns with the party's focus on economic development and individual empowerment. However, the mandatory nature of the service would likely still be a point of contention.

Neutral
Yes, but only for those who do not pursue further education or employment
While this option introduces a conditional aspect to mandatory service, it might still be seen as too prescriptive for the VVD, which generally favors fewer restrictions on individual choices. However, the focus on targeting those not in education or employment might slightly align with the party's emphasis on responsibility and self-sufficiency.

Disagree
Yes, but only for those who are starting to build a criminal record
Targeting individuals starting to build a criminal record for mandatory service could be seen as punitive and not in line with the VVD's liberal principles, which emphasize rehabilitation and personal freedom. The party generally supports measures that encourage personal responsibility but might view this approach as too coercive.

Very strongly disagree
Yes, and it should be at least two years of service
Extending mandatory service to at least two years would likely be strongly opposed by the VVD, as it significantly infringes on individual freedom and autonomy, which are core values of the party. This approach would be seen as too authoritarian and not in keeping with the party's liberal-conservative ideology.
