Does the mandatory national service pay $30+/hour, with raises if you stay voluntarily after the mandatory period is finished? That might do it.
$30/h today and still $30/h 20 years from now and they'll wonder why people are upset again.
Classic "our model doesn't work anymore for some reason". How about instead of pay we try to "modernize" it with [insert buzzword]?
Let’s modernize it with AI that will get the kids interested.
Yeah, that was my first thought. If it was a guaranteed well-paying career like it used to be maybe it would change the mood in here. Otherwise, no, it's just a way to have a less pathetic military.
