No amount of money or benefits will ever make me a government's boot licker. Sorry, not sorry
Maybe you personally. But money would actually solve all their problems.
All they provide today is a shitty job with bad pay and no future prospects.
They are not finding enough soldiers because all these soft modern young adults are too selfish for that job, just like companies find no employees because those spoiled brats are too lazy to work. Obviously none of it has to do with not providing reasonable payments of course. So forced labor is the the proposed solution.
It sounds like you earn too much, or you are projecting. Maybe both. Also, I hope you're better than them and have already joined the military.
Yeah, sure... I am "projecting" personal experience in the Bundeswehr two decades ago. It was already a shitshow back then with only those with no job prospects anywhere else considering to join (outside some special and very limeted numbers, using their time there to study... but that's not the bulk of soldiers). It went downhill from there ever since.
Sounds like you didn't get what they are saying...
