When the military coaches you on how to apply for food stamps that in itself should be reason enough not to know

Perhaps $30 an hour. The Japanese are well on the road to robotizing these kind of operations. I live in a very red right to work state. Robotizing would work fine here and the robots would be smarter than many of the service wotkers.

"Maybe if there was a draft these kids might have a chance to do something with their life."

Biden's bolshevik drill sergeants will work night and day instilling the concepts of Duty, Honor, Country into the minds of the draftees.

Maybe because they do not want to be lab rats for experimental gene therapies, fight in endless wars for a bunch of corrupt politicians that have sold the country along with our military. On top of that the pay is so low it will qualify you on food stamps.

I have a nurse friend who works for the VA. She told her son she would disown him if he joined the military

They did it to themselves. I would never do it again if given the chance. Not under this regime

When the big war comes—and it will-—They will draft all they need including illegals and women. Woke Generals will throw away soldiers in human wave attacks. A German General once said; “A soldiers life is like a penny, only good when spent!” Heaven help our female soldiers if they should fall into the hands of the enemy. Save the last bullet for yourself ladies. Is America under Biden even worth fighting for? Looks like the only way an average Joe can get a house of his own is to have your legs blown off in some 3rd world Stan.

Test them on social justice awareness, awareness of toxic masculinity, knowledge of racist founding of America in 1619, superiority of women and how math is racist.

That’s the answer to “what did you learn in school today?”

Bring back the draft

Al Sharpton proposed that a long time ago because it was the sure way to shatter America's social cohesiveness. He said the white boys being given college deferments would enrage the blacks and set off revolution.

The same draft in WW II and Vietnam? Where exactly did that get US decades, later?

The future enemy is China. Without a draft a lot of US women will be in it. When I retired in 2006 the Army was 15% female. Most of these young women see the Army as a jobs program with day care. Almost every young female I saw had a kid or two and no husband and never had one. Over half of the kids were mixed race. I told people back then to absolutely not let their daughters join the military if they didn’t want them to become a species of welfare mother with a half black kid. Nothing has changed, only gotten worse. Once a big war starts a lot of women are going to find out what ‘cross leveling’ means and find their pretty little bodies in combat arms unit as battlefield replacements. The Chinese have only gotten smarter since the Korean War and closely observe every aspect of our society and government. The Chicoms were fairly sophisticated in their POW operations in that war and a lot US prisoners cooperated in some fashion than was disclosed. In the next war the Chinese will find the masses of US female soldiers they capture to be very easy to manipulate. No brutality, just endless propaganda , much from very sympathetic appearing Chinese female soldiers. Captured female soldiers will be easily manipulated to make TV appearances weeping over missing their children, who of course have no daddy. The number of skirt turners will be high and it will be a real humiliation, at the least, to the US. The AF and USN have been hell bent on getting women in the cockpit of combat aircraft. See how they enjoy well paid, pampered US pilots turning skirt and screeching the Chicom party line.

Same story as you - pothead slacker to patriot same year and age- but I was motivated by a Vietnam veteran jerking me up at a grocery store over an Army jacket I had on that still had the campaign patches on (I was oblivious about). He made me think hard, recount my blessings and enlist after doing poorly in college anyway. And it was THE glorious era helping Reagan win the Cold War while my fellow soldiers were primarily straight, Christian and patriotic.

I agree. That is a major change that will deter many young people.

The many enemies are here now. They have taken over almost every aspect of our government, local, state, and federal, and they aren’t all Chinese. They’re foreigners, and also traitors within who have sold us off piece by piece.

I wonder if there is a conspiracy to make sure our youth are unfit for military service.

You first.

I refuse to be drafted into the Pedofile in chief’s Army where sodomy and same sex gang rape are encouraged as well as covered up.
