Conscription 

Conscription is when governments force its citizens, usually young, able bodied men, to serve in the armed forces. In most countries, it is only implemented during a time of war, but in some, it also exists during peacetime. It’s a highly controversial subject, and many see it as essentially a form of modern day slavery.

Countries with peacetime conscription include South Korea, Taiwan, Singapore, Greece, Switzerland, and Austria.

conscruption industry 

(N.B: the word conscruption is actually an amalgamation of the words construction and corruption): the infamously and notoriously corrupt construction industry in the Canada's Belle Province, the province of Quebec.

the conscruption industry isn't, IMHO, a problem onto itself. IMHO it's actually our corrupt provincial politicians who let the spiel of the conscruption industry keep unfolding; therefore our some of our politicians in Quebec should also be investigated by The Charbonneau Commission.
