The Wrong Side of the Tracks
:unimpressed: didn't none of this happen like that. Gohan was getting fukked up by Cell in a beam struggle. Vegeta distracted Cell enough for Gohan to win after trying to hurt Cell because he killed Trunks. Meanwhile Goku chilling with King Kai not around dead as usual eating food. Goku is never there for his son and still loses to Vegeta who always there for his kids.
I guess you missed the whole Goku blowing Cell's whole side off then he and Gohan sending Cell to 'another dimension' after making Vegeta do something other than feel sorry for his failure and breaking his arm.​

There's literally no reason why they can't take everything that's done in the military (free college, team building skills, retirement etc.)
and make it normal for the entirety of society WITHOUT the need to join the military .
you're right
but the U.S government would never approve a program with a $700Billion dollar annual budget that improved the lives of it's citizens :mjlol:

conscription is next
It'd be at the barrel of a gun. Better to have a casus belli to get people willingly volunteering. Without that, you got a whole bunch of people who at best halfheartedly join to avoid prison, like what's going down in Russia. Putin didn't give his people something to die for, unlike in WW2 when the Nazis were coming in with the express intent of wiping every Slav from the face of the earth.

America's playbook has always been to have something for people to willingly for. If someone's momma comes around screaming why her son came back in a box, the Feds gotta be able to be like "Hey, they started it. Your son died in defense of this nation :manny: ".

French and Indian War - French and Indian incursions on setters on the frontier
Revolution - Intolerable Acts
1812 - Impressing of sailors/ Native incursions on settlers in the frontier (really American expansion on Natives masked in manifest destiny)
Mexican American War - Mexican incursions on settlers (again American expansion on Mexican claim)
Civil War - Fort Sumter attack
Spanish American - USS Maine
WW1 - Zimmerman Telegram
WW2 - Pearl Harbor
Vietnam - Gulf of Tonkin
Persian Gulf - Kuwaiti Independence
Gulf War 2/Afghanistan - WMDs/9/11

The government's gotta appeal to Zoomers, so that why you saw a whole bunch of Ukraine is so progressive propaganda in the media (Ukraine legalizing gay marriage and shyt like that)

Not a big deal if it at 25% that's actually good. Only about 7% of Americans are veterans. The military is a great stepping stone. Just go in with a plan. They are going to get theirs so make sure you get yours. If you go Intel you are guaranteed 6 figures when you get out. Plus all the VA benefits are great. That VA disability check is sweet too!

I can’t blame them they are hopefully using better opportunities.

The military worked out well for me but I also did 21 years and I’m 100% disabled and transitioned into a fed job in leading into retirement so it worked out for me and a lot of others I know. But I can admit it’s not for everyone. But knowing I at least always have over $75,000 a year coming in between retirement and disability pay does allow me a bit of breathing room.
I'm bout to hit the button in May breh:yes:

He let his off spring handle the lightweight. Vegetable always weak at the knees we saw him Vs frieza and brolly.
Look at him…terrified. :unimpressed:
Old Broly is not canon, this one is. Goku and Vegeta weren’t scared at all.
