Who is going to fight America's future wars?
Another question for the new year.
I would have to imagine, after the last 5-10 years especially, the US has lost a major chunk of the demographic that used to make up the base of its professional military.
I'm going to assume a major chunk of those folks have become pretty cynical, disillusioned and jaded after watching the show unfold over the last decade.
So who does that leave to fill the giant gaping hole in recruitment?
Certainly not young liberals...LOL
So you've lost a ton of conservatives...and you never had liberals...so where does that leave us?
Pretty barren I would have to believe...unintended consequences of going WOKE and going anti-Constitution I suppose....oh well...thems the breaks.

Robots . That’s where it’s heading anyway .
The Government never does itself any favors. The “talk “ and what actually takes place never matches up. You get all the bull shite, sappy ….. support the Vets talk and it’s mostly pomp. I mean , it doesn’t matter if one is conservative or liberal. It’s all the same lies . Homeless veterans all over the streets , enormous suicide rate and I wouldn’t go to the VA for serious medical treatment in a million years . I know three guys personally who got all screwed up or over by the VA. It’s just a joke . Thank God I didn’t serve and count on their phony benefits. Which have been questionable since WW 1. I knew it was mostly bs going in the Navy . I don’t know how any of these politicians…… from either side ……. Spout their bs and sleep at night .
What anyone says and then what actually happens to Vets is two different things and not much of it is positive. The jig is up at this point .

A retried general came on CNN the other day and stated that today it is hard to find young men FIT enough to even pass the physical for becoming a soldier, sailor or airman

Well, woke liberals are now going around and saying FITNESS and WEIGHT LOSS are all based in WHITE SUPREMACY....so...you only have yourself to blame
Do you see now how IN THE TOILET this country has fallen because of ideologies YOU embrace?
You like to call the far-right INSANE...but the REAL INSANITY is all on YOUR SIDE of the aisle

NONE of this crap is either relevant nor fact
Having practiced 35 years, weight loss was TOP of the list of better health maintenance in almost every phase of medicine and has NO preference to ANY ethnicity

Read all the articles I posted.
Then google...there are a lot more out there.
Telling people to LOSE WEIGHT is now considered WHITE SUPREMACY
This is the INSANITY you embrace now.
Don't be a pussy.
OWN IT

In a conventional war, air power would have to carry the weight because trying to orchestrate a ground mission would be a joke. Who would the infantry be composed of? Few parents would allow their boys to leave home and fight. Forget about a draft, too. Liberals would have none of that.
I envision the next big war America partakes will be nuclear...small warheads hopefully. Just make sure your child's handheld internet gadgets are fully charged. Failure here would be as bad as dying.

So true . The political crap is pretty much that . The bottom line is Veterans don’t get what they deserve. Which kind of falls on the so called Conservative folk because the Liberals admit they don’t give a crap pretty much . Plus, when I was in the Navy they started throwing out and threatening fat folk. And they didn’t care how senior one was. They went after our ship medic!!!! Lol. He was one of the biggest people on the ship !

Future wars will be fought be those who can’t get a job at McDonalds.
Cannon fodder does not require basic math skills or proficiency in English.

Maybe people are not enlisting because it is obvious the govberment doesn't have the military's back.
Biden leaves a soldier in Russian hands but brings home a stupid, 100% USELESS WOMAN BASKET BALL PLAYER.
We have another being held in Japan! that Biden is ignoring. Japan!!!
I could make Japan do anything by just popping a balloon behind their backs.
Why would anyone risk anything to protect these Godless, scumbag democrats?
This country, at this time, does not deserve our great miitary.

If we instituted a draft these slackards would be trained into shape.
I’ve seen it done.
