Here’s what happens when you disrupt a functioning system, regardless of whether it’s a company or a government department. People take other jobs and move away. In my experience, those other jobs usually pay more. Those people have already sold whatever was keeping them in the first location and bought more stuff in the new location. If the military wins back people who left one or two years ago, it will be the people who were not able to move up to a better situation. The good ones won’t be back. They are gone forever.
The government would be better off determining why they aren’t meeting recruitment goals. It starts with the woke policies, but there are other societal issues like an anti-American education system that ridicules patriotism and teaches woke history.
You and I both know this is true, but a leftist liberal NEVER equates reality with their policies. Indeed, they double down, triple down on their policies and then cannot figure out why it doesn't work. Their answer for everything is 'more leftism will fix that.' They cannot think for themselves. That is why Left wing governments always fail eventually because those in government know only what is in their inflexible ideology. That which does not flex will soon break under the stress.................
