[quote=Anonymous] This has nothing to do with Trump, much as I'd like to blame him for all ills. Most developed nations with highly educated populations have seen a decrease in the wish to serve militarily, just because people these days don't take kindly to being ordered about for no good reason: western populations are highly individualistic, know full well that military leadership doesn't have their individual interests at heart (they operate for the nation's defense, which is VERY different), and hardly anyone is prepared to die for their country. Usually it's lower-income groups who are attracted by such positions, merely as a way to find careers and financial independence. You'd better hope this trend will continue - it goes hand-in-hand with greater prosperity! [/quote]
