For decades, America has relied on an all-volunteer force. But recruitment numbers are collapsing, especially among Gen Z. The Pentagon quietly admits it can’t fill the ranks. So if Washington chooses another major war, who will actually fight it? Vietnam left scars that still haunt families today: working-class kids were sent overseas while politicians’ sons stayed home. Do we really believe it would be any different this time? The military-industrial complex makes billions selling weapons, while ordinary Americans could be forced to send their sons and daughters into conflicts they never asked for. And if allies hesitate, America may once again carry the burden—alone. Without enough volunteers, the draft becomes not just possible, but likely. The uncomfortable question is whether Americans are prepared to accept that reality. #Military #Politics
