Bring back the draft.
It'll never happen. Senior enlisted leadership does not have the skill set to train and discipline draftees, many of whom would be openly defiant and incorrigible. Instilling in senior leadership this skill set after serving for many years in a volunteer force would be very difficult. The military would have to bring in outside entities, which would cause chaos in the ranks.
As senior enlisted, we're used to training volunteers, most of whom want to be there and do a good job. This is what we know how to do and have been doing successfully now for decades. Occasionally a few slip through the cracks who realize that for themselves, enlistment was a mistake. They'll do as little as possible, receive adverse evaluations, and eventually wash themselves out of the military, sometimes rather quickly.
But imagine draftees who show up at boot camp with the attitude, "F*** YOU! I DIDN'T SIGN UP FOR THIS S**T!" What to do with them? Beat them? Toss them into prison? The public relations fallout of that would be catastrophic.
This isn't the WWII or Vietnam generation where draftees might've grumbled, but most still reported for duty and served honorably. These kids today. Do you think some Antifa tranny is going to follow orders? Or some feral criminal gangbanger with an <80 IQ? They'd put everyone at risk and erode morale, discipline, and combat effectiveness.
Why? it’s slavery and nation that needs a draft to survive should be looking inwardly at why
No Involuntary servitude except as punishment for a crime. It’s a Constitutional Amendment.
Your suggestion of a draft is more proof democrats have turned the country into a hellhole.
If WOKE idiots want to be in charge of the military, they can sign up their own kids to defend the hellhole they want to make of the old United States... Cause citizens aren’t in the loop anymore. We don’t have skin in the game... and dying to protect ‘them’ is nuts.
Cops are quitting too... Shall the thugs running the US force people to be cops?
