Army, that figures. The military ain’t a jobs program. It’s for killing people and breaking stuff. We can’t afford to be for it to be International Armed and Dangerous Pizza Guy any more.
...only four years, figrues. Keep posting deep thinker. It takes time to train a fighting force; dismissing half of them while maintaining Pell Grants and EBT payments isn’t good national policy.
You don’t get it. We don’t need a “fighting force” unless it’s New Jersey being invaded. All we need is a Navy to keep the shipping lanes open, some Marines to take and hold ports for a brief period, and an Air Force to launch nukes.
We could do that with a military 1/3 the size we have now.
Let the Euroweenies defend Europe. Let Japan defend Japan. Let Korea defend Korea. I’m sick and tired of watching you guys bleed and die for a bunch of 5th century savages who should have been reduced to radioactive dust a decade ago.
