By policy that drives down the economy of the bottom 80%, that makes college impossible, unattractive, impractical, unaffordable, that makes broken homelife and community unbearable, by glorifying war, by freaking people out that the godless hordes will invade and nuke, by making people feel it's better within the military when it happens, by the promise of lucrative private military contractors and soldiers of fortune, by making it seem like violence and force and by supremacy and Gods will and even the opportunity to be fast tracked within the mon or gangs once out, maybe, that's how. GI BIll, citizenship with military service, and ultimately that it's better to sign up and have some say where you will serve instead of the random assignment and uncertainty of getting drafted, which now looks more and more likely. But how will the 1% dodge the draft with Vietnam legacy still on the mind? No problem, young people ate so separated from older people and buried reality about why REALLY that war ended, and who actually went to combat and who got cushioned time like W Bush protecting Texas in the National Guard airwing, which he blew off anyhow, and even though he got bumped up on the list ahead of the more deserving. And bone spur DJ Trump tricks, and marriage college kid tricks like DICK Cheney or getting into acting and singing for "troops" like John Wayne and Elvis... That's how. Maybe. Allegedly. Or so THEY say.

[@robertdavie1221]

Australia's military is far too small to achieve the task required of it as it is vastly dwarfed in terms of numbers of personnel and equipment by all of its neighbours. This is the result of decades of underfunding and neglect by its politicians who prefer to focus on quality of lifestyle type issues at the expense of fundamental matters of existence. Enabling this strategic apathy and negligence is the misguided belief that US military power is nearly unlimited and globally dominant and that it would automatically come to the defence of Australia should any of her neighbours attack her. The US is not obligated under the ANZUS Alliance to send troops or equipment to our aid in the event of an attack upon us. They are only obligated to engage in talks with us and nothing more. As we have all seen, the US did not assist Ukraine, a fellow democracy, when it was invaded because it is not under any binding treaty-based obligation to do so. Even though failure to render assistance to Ukraine has resulted in Russian forces now sitting on the borders of NATO countries with whom the US does have a treaty backed obligation to come to their defence in the event they are attacked. The Americans have chosen to delay dealing with the problem choosing, instead, to only engage in talking about it, a clear indication of where their interests lie. It would not be surprising to see the US attempt to withdraw from NATO in the coming years (after 2024?). We should not expect the US to do anything other than talk with us should we come under attack by a foreign power. Even if they did want to assist us they do not have the shipping capacity needed to move their forces and equipment here. The US President is not able to use the Defence Production Act to commandeer an international shipping line as all the big shipping lines are foreign owned. If Ukraine were a nuclear-armed state Russia would not have been able to invade it. Look at how the small nation of North Korea, with a population of 25 million, laughed off the US, a nation of more than 320 million, under President Trump, despite his threats of raining "fire and fury" down upon them. Now contrast that with what has been happening in Ukraine, a nation of 44 million, being crushed out of existence by Russia, a nation of 147 million and nuclear armed. However, what is clear is that no one would risk attacking us if we were nuclear-armed. Better to prevent war than to try to prosecute one inflicted upon us. The way to maintain peace between nations is by the possession of nuclear weapons because these weapons rule out the possibility of war altogether.

[@johndaniel6149]

I took the time to read through your diatribe, and I can say you are mistaken. I was born and raised in the US and let me tell you, if Australia gets attacked, we are willing to die for you and your sovereignty. The people who mess with you will regret it. On Ukraine, we have shipped more firepower and munitions than any other nation. We have given the Ukrainians more funds in 100 days than most nations spend on their militaries in one year. And lastly, this is a dangerous time. The Russians have a lot of nukes, we can’t be in a direct confrontation with them. We’re not mean or dumb. That said; I don’t trust the government, any government…

So the lieutenant general out of war time gets 3 Microstate with their 45,000 pool of troops, in war times three lieutenant general take a commission each for democratic defence overview while two lieutenant general are war front attack cavalry, yet out of war the lieutenant general command 3 Microstate, the major general gets a Microstate with their pool of 15,000 troops similar to the thistle knights three regiment of 5,000 a regiment, then the major generals major get a patchwork commission of Microstate each of 5 seats for their 5,000 regiment pool, then the lieutenant gets a seat with their pool of battalion 1,000 troops, then the seat breaks down to 25 patches of equal mass, the captain gets 5 patches for their company pool of 200 troops, then the sargent gets a patch for their platoon pool of 40 troops that the platoon breaks down into 4 or 5 squad of 10 or 8 soldier, that's how non political rudimentary order of command works

So to put troop numbers in perspective including commanding officers that one lieutenant general including themselves has 1,408 commanding officer of the 45,000 troops logistically so the lieutenant general is 46,408 military an five times that is 232,040 military to run the pentadecagon federation democratically yet one lieutenant general can run a skeleton crew of 200 strong company in every seat of the pentadecagon federation non political rudimentary order of command
