Why would anyone of sound mind join today’s military? From Kurt Schlichter at townhall.com:
The generals and admirals are in a tizzy because the cannon fodder is refusing to sign on the line that is dotted. The generals and admirals blame those mostly traditional, conservative American kids for not wanting to join up, and this is the closest thing to right those admirals and generals have been for decades. The kids themselves have decided that they don’t want to join the current faux military. And why the hell would they?
People join the military for mixed reasons, but there’s always some level of patriotism involved. Nobody takes the ration of crap that even a competent military delivers without, at least somewhere in their hearts, the desire to serve their country. So, let’s review the status of the country that the generals and admirals demand our young people risk their lives for. Will our young people be fighting for freedom? Will our young people be defending liberty? Will they be putting it all on the line for Our Democracy?
What a joke. There are consequences for squandering institutional trust for short-term advantage, and one of them is that no one will want to die for you.
Finally the what if they made a war and no one showed up.
I did LMFAO at some of the snark from high schoolers asking about what color are your stockings and do you have a Victoria’s Secret account of MIC recruiters.
Pappy told me years ago don’t you sign up…or else.
Draft. Put down your skateboard, hang up your evening gown,
shave off your Castro beard and put your blood where your
lawn sign (mouth) is. Don’t worry it’s just like a video game.
