These are not the reasons.

Fear of death and PTSD from what? Aint no wars...Ukraine is fighting the russians for us.

Believe it or not, leaving family has always been a reason to join.

You can make better money with a half-way decent job, not deal with fucked up housing, and hassle with petty bullshit the army throws at you from their officers.

They may need to bring back the signing bonuses because the unemployment rate has been low and the average wage went up some. Kids got a lot of decent options

Good, glad these young kids are waking up to the lies. Let psycho white boys go die for country, increase recruitment in poor white areas and offer signing bonuses, beer and better benefits for their cousin wives, they'll fill the gap real quick

Where is fighting a bullshit war in the list. We spent 20 years in Afghanistan's ass, for what, to protect poppy fields as soon as we left and I mean as soon, Taliban was like peace, and came right back in that bitch the same fucking day. They left some of the Afghanistan collaborator there to get killed. We went into Iraq to steal oil and gold. Went to Libya provide air support, for what, cause we were scared they would start using the gold dinar instead of the USD. The US love picking on smaller colored countries. I support my brothers and sisters looking to get out of a bad situation at home and find the military as a means to an ends, but some of those wars got me scratching my head, especially when they be harping on that bring freedom and democracy shit.
