I usually agree with you but... Poor kids go to Iraq and Afghanistan Wealthy kids go to Harvard and Yale The wealthy train their sons in rifle and survival skills through camping, fishing and hunting No child of mine would ever join the military Strong fathers not governmenthttps://twitter.com/HKBelvedere/status/1292769366245871616 …

There was a time of misguided patriotism where it was considered noble for rich men to serve. Those days are long gone as they, too, realize its pointlessness. If there's basic training that guarantees no deployment for all these kids, then yes Not sure if there's such a thing
There is boot camps in the USA but not so much in the UK or Europe. I felt I benefitted hugely from joining in the army at 17. I would have been fucked without that sort of training as a youth. It would help so many men. Especially from single mother households.

Believe me, I get your underlying premise. As far as I am aware, bootcamp requires youths to be delinquent. It's typically after the commission of juvenile crimes where they qualify for bootcamp without enlistment in the military.
