Uh-Oh Army

[NightskyeB4Dawn]

Anyway, I stewed on that all morning and figured I'd share. If it gets under your skin, do me a favor and don't copy/paste this in the note to your Congress Critter. The main article came out of the Washington Examiner: https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/resto...eritocracy

The military has a problem with recruiting because they have nothing to offer our youth. They are smart enough to know that Call of Duty in the virtual world comes with many lives, and that they can control when they turn it on and when they turn it off. They are sitting comfortably in the homes of their parents and some of them don't even have to get up to get something to eat.

Why would they go to combat in the real world? Ideas such as freedoms, right, and make America great again, mean little or nothing to them. In fact any buzz words or triggering words, that may have worked in the past to motivate young men and women to leave home, take up a gun, and shoot strangers they had been programmed to hate, for no other reason than their government told them to, is just not going to fly with today's young adults.
