While I agree that traveling abroad is an enlightening experience, and will help people become more broad in their knowledge of the world outside the US, making it a requirement or "law" is stepping over a little too far. Not every child in the US can afford to travel for one, but my main point is that the government would be stepping well out of bounds. Kinda like the idea that some people have that every memeber of the US should serve a minimum of 2 years in the military. While I agree with that idea as well, it encroaches in an area that the government has no business....our personal choices....
