Military is job of last resort for unemployed masses

Many have accurately predicted that the convergence of an imploding economy, unemployment and secret trillion dollar bailouts would lead to more defense spending and the expansion of the Armed Forces.

And they were right because as more people lose their jobs all branches of the military are finding it easier to meet recruitment goals.

Source: MSNBC The tough job market is making some jobs a lot easier. As the economy goes down, military recruitment goes up. Its a sellers market, as one Marine recruiter put it, and thats with military action in Iraq and Afghanistan. For a change, the Army doesnt have to go out as much to try to attract recruits because more and more are walking through the door. One recruiting officer noticed that theyre a little older than the norm. About 27, 38, 36 years old, all the way up to almost 40, said Sgt. Jermaine Martin.

President Obamas plan to increase the military by 100,000 is now possible as military service becomes the job of last resort.

Obamas defense department is even recruiting soldiers from what they call temporary immigrants, to give them a shot at citizenship. Using waivers for high school graduation and criminal convictions the Pentagon hopes to recruit 1,000 into the U.S. Armed Forces this year.

There's no jobs, people got no choice. The irony is that you fight FOR the people who took the jobs. And then you get all fucked up or hurt, and they fuck you again. Good luck with all that, lol.

150 Million Dollars for just one damn airplane, 2 Billion for one stealth bomber. I wonder how many jobs could have been made to take in the unemployed using that 2 Billion 150 Million dollars for just those two fucking planes?
