There is a good argument made here, and elsewhere, that Japan and Korea would be better off using funds to compensate their firms for the auto tariffs then submitting to the extortion demands for bogus "investment" funds. on.ft.com/46sl1uk

Idk what to say about the Army because it'd be disastrous if only fascists signed up, but how can you ask someone to build a career where the dumbest majors in the National Guard, third rate 40k lore YouTubers, and a 14 year-old Bolivian named "The Cock Mangler" have veto power over your promotion?
