I got some good news for you some bad News for you about the military in America the good news is we are so much Nicer in the Army we are no longer mean Challenging people telling them to Toughen up because we care so much about Your well-being but the bad part about The military is we got weaker matter of Fact here's a recent article that came From Wall Street Journal stating in 2022 The U.S military had its toughest Recruiting year since we were doing an All-volunteer military in 1973 here's The shortfall Army's goal for 2022 for Recruiting was 65 000. they fell short By 15 000 people that's 23 Navy's goal Was 38 they fell short by 10 000 that's Minus 26 percent Air Force was 27. they Fell short by 3 minus 11 Marines were The only ones that had a goal and they Hit it and when I share with you the Data today I'll give you one and that's Going to drive you crazy did you know we Spend the same amount of money to Ukraine already in the fight against Russia as Russia's entire military Budget was last year wait TC some of This data you're gonna say what the hell Are we doing in America let's get right Into it Foreign Would say if you give value out of this Video give it a thumbs up and subscribe To the channel I should probably say if
This thing pisses you off give it a Thumbs up and subscribe to the channel Let's get right into a look there's a Lot of things going on right now so well Because recruiting is Downers because Military's gone woke and then Kirby Million blink can say no that's not the Reason there's no real correlation Between the two so we said listen why Don't we look at some of the numbers see What we kind of noticing that's going on Within our military because Safety and Security is very important to you too I I got a family I'm sure you want to be Safe as well so let's see what's really Going on here all right so let's first Take a look at how big our military is Today versus in the past before if you Look at this chart here this goes from 50s till today of course we don't want To look at World War II because I think We had a high of 16 million total Obviously some of it you were drafted You didn't have a choice but I'm looking At the era that is volunteer air and Slightly prior to that if you look at This chart in the 50s during Korean War We had a little over 3 million soldiers In the military that's between 1950 to 53 a little over 3 million then if you Notice the 70s we went back above 3 Million again that's three and a half Million that's the war that was going on With Vietnam Vietnam
1955-75 and then it dropped off and then We go into the 80s 90s you're dealing With the Persian Gulf we had roughly 2 Million people in the military and then Today we're the lowest we've ever been We're at roughly 1.35 million people in The Air Force Marine Corps Navy and army Combined this is all active duty so you May say pal I don't know if that's a big Is that a big number compared to what Let's look at a competitors China China's got 2 million India's Got 1.45 Million we have 1.3 million North Korea Is 1.2 million Russia's got 850 000 then It's Pakistan at 640. Iran's got 575 South Korea's got 555 Vietnam's got 470 And Egypt has 450. by the way for some Of you that want some fun fact type of Thing active and Reserve Vietnam's the Most with around five and a half million They're really concerned if another Hiroshima happens again so they want to Make sure they stay paranoid now let's Look at some stats here today nearly 80 Percent of all Army recruits have a Family member who serve meanings if I Join maybe it's like my dad served I Want to do the same my uncle sir I want To do the same at the same time the the Department of Defense said that 77 Percent of American Youth are Disqualified for military due to a lack Of physical fitness low test scores Criminal records including drug use or
Other problems so if you don't have that Big of an inventory and they're not Qualified what do you have to do you Either have to keep the standards the Waiters or say well why don't we just Lower the standards to get more people That get in and then at the same time in 2021 only nine percent of young people Ages 16 to 21 said they would ever Consider joining the military now let's Take a look at what's happened in America with different policy changes Since 2011 to today 2011. U.S repealed The don't ask don't tell policy Prohibiting gay recruits from serving Openly in the military 2013 U.S lifts Ban on women serving in combat roles There's a big thing that happens in 2013 When they said women can go into combat Wait to see the state of here according To the Center for a new American Security CNAs the number of women Serving in combat occupations increased Over 60 percent between 2013 to 2018 but But what else increased let me show you Sexual assault reports made to Department of Defense skyrocketed right After 2013. when you look at this here Notice that from 2007 to 2012 it's flat 2013. combat takes place look at the Reports all the way at the top in total Reports from 3 604 reports to next year 5518 and it's climbed all over seven Eight thousand today so you may say wait
A minute so what are you saying you know That's okay I'm not saying it's okay all I'm saying is when you send thousands of Men who are 18 to 25 years old with the Testosterone level here and the ratio For soldiers in active duty not in Combat is for every five male active Duty there's one female so out of six One is a female five is a male and in Combat the ratios are astronomically Higher you're you're putting these men In a bad situation but that's an excuse You're making for them I'm not telling Them don't put people in a bad situation To do something bad these numbers tell Us it's not a good thing that has Happened again bad policies have Consequences this is showing this was a Bad policy November 2017 this was the First time the defense health agency Approved payments for sex reassignment Surgery for active duty U.S military Service members matter of fact Pentagon Spent 15 million dollars between 2017 to 2021 treating 1892 transgender troops including 11.5 Million dollars for Psychotherapy and 3.1 million dollars for surgeries According to the defense department data Provided to military.com I want you to Think about in Russia in China in Iran They're getting a report did you know America spent 15 million dollars for Surgery Pentagon 1890 what do you think
The enemy's thinking oh my God we're Going to go against transgenders we have To be very careful because this is like A level above Navy SEAL or do you think They're laughing saying what the hell Happened to the most feared military in The world is that really with the Pentagon who the hell is running the Pentagon to prove numbers like this how Would you look at it if the military Said it by the way you can talk about Work policies maybe in business and Other places and sell it in war were Your safeties on the line this sounds Ludicrous to me I don't know if it does To you as well and so if you're my age In your 40s you're going to look at this One and say what are these guys talking About here but today remember we're Nicer today we're more pleasant today we We do woosa today in the military and we Do yoga because that's how we defend our Country by being peaceful and telling The enemy hey China before you kill us Why don't we do yoga together so we can Have more peace what do you think about That China's going to be like you're out Of your flip of mine Mr enemy boom we Win 2018 big change big policy change Ready harassment prevention and response In the armed forces policy created under Direction of Defense secretary Jim Mattis so in 2018 Jim Mattis came up With a policy here the whole thing was
Around anti-bullying policies which he Came up with and they defined bullion as Offensive jokes epithets ridicule or Mockery insults or put Downs displays of Offensive objects or imagery Stereotyping intimidating acts Veil Threats of violence threatening or Provoking remarks slurs derogatory Remarks about a person's accent displays Of racially offensive symbols sounds Like the last dance with the Chicago Bulls when you play with Michael because Sounds like all that stuff was Michael Doing that when he was challenging his People and we come the greatest of all Time I understand some of these things May be harmful hurtful hurt someone's Feelings but you're you're defending a Nation maybe in third grade I understand These things maybe in fifth grade maybe In a church okay you can't cross the Line with this stuff but you're being Mentally toughened up to imagine what The enemy is going to tell you if you Can't take something from a peer how are You gonna do you see the logic behind or Not the next one I understand Discrimination based on race color Religion sex national origin sexual Orientation but even with that do you Want more women in war in combat than These are questions we have to be asking Because it's not working and in sexual Unwanted sexual advances requests for
Sexual favors offensive comments or Gestures of a sexual nature and then a Couple other things they have here Obviously hazing and retaliation I get The whole retaliation code red you know You can't handle the truth totally get It now all that stuff is fine but let's See what this did what was the impact of This in different services that we have So now what is the punishment if you do Something like that let me read you Exactly what the punishment was for Doing this number one a court-martial Conviction for hazing can result in a Maximum sentence of one year of Confinement a dishonorable discharge and Forfeiture of all paid and allowances That's probably going to scare the crap Of half the military leaders saying whoa I don't even want to deal with the Second one a non-judicial punishment for Hazing can result in a reprimand loss of Rank extra Duty restriction to quarters Or a combination of these punishments a Victim of haze can also file a civil Lawsuit against the perpetrators now you And I may have a different opinion you May some of you guys might say Pat What's wrong with that we should have That totally fine is it working and if We're mentally and emotionally preparing You to do what to go shoot the last shot And while you're shooting the free throw The player shouldn't say anything bad to
You because it's going to hurt your Feelings okay fine you want to put that In your little league do it you think The enemy is going to go by the same Guideline you think the enemy is going To be like I can't say bad words about You you little shorty I can't say Anything bad about you you little fatty But you think they're going to come at You and emotionally try to like this is Either gonna work or it's not gonna work But just think about from the enemy Standpoint the enemy is looking at the Same what a bunch of mentally and Emotionally weak people Americans have Become this next one's pretty wild and 2020 Army replaced a shark attack with Team events called the Thunder Run Meaning shark attack if you don't know What they don't say go swimming with Sharks shark attack in the military is When drill sergeant screaming and Training these faces as they stepped off The buses ordering them to perform Exercise exercises using loaded duffel Bags I clearly did this in 1997 when the Drill sergeant was hitting me with his Hat go ahead hey private get your duffel Back I remember that drill sergeant were Charged with assessing the trainee's Ability to handle stress single enough To perceive undesirables by enveloping Them in a manner that emulated a shark Attack so that's what they did before by
The way they replaced that with Thunder Run which is incredibly nice okay very Nice let me share with you team building Exercises that aims to build trust and Recruits are penalized with physical Exercises instead of getting screamed at What a what a generous climate to Prepare these young soldiers to protect Our country because the enemy is getting Nicer we have to definitely consider Getting nicer August 2021 The Botch Would draw from Afghanistan we left 80 Plus billion dollars of equipment There's not a big deal we can make that Again and sell it again just come back Guys then in May 13 2021 the woke Recruiting cartoon Emma with two moms I Don't know if you've seen that if you've Not seen it this is when they started Saying we have to kind of inject woke in Military now it's in front of all of us We're seeing it October 2021 maybe Emotional for some you ready Not a general patent something better Than Patton a four-star transgeneral Imagine when the enemy hears about that Can you imagine she is like guys it's Over we're shivering we're gonna face a Four-star transgeneral this person is Going to have strategies better than Napoleon better than patent better than All of these guys combined it's game Over let's just kind of surrender and Say you know what U.S you guys got it
