Can someone explain why this is a Gezeira? They will not force anyone to the army, they just won’t fund the Yeshiva students who don’t serve.
Firstly some communities never took money from the Medina (Satmar, Eida Chareidis) And even the ones that do, it’s a financial problem not a Gezeira.
Would it be a Gezeira if Mayor Bloomberg cut off food stamps to anyone who does Metzitza Be’Peh? No. If it’s important to you you agree to the financial loss and get your money elsewhere.
