NickBond, and you're probably very tolerant, right?

After the hardships of the Soviet system, people became addicted to money like a drug and can't stop.
Is living in poverty and standing in line all day really better, huh? lol.
But why? I won't be building an army anyway.

and you're not? yuck, to be like that =[/QUOTE]
A surprisingly subtle joke from Arandor, quite unexpected.
There are people who can control themselves and don't degenerate, and such people don't need power like in the USSR. Unfortunately, most people are not like that; they cannot control themselves and need to be constantly told what to do. Perhaps a strong authority is needed for such people.
Sure, have your combat-ready army, I don't know who needs it, and it requires expenses that could be redirected to other areas...
But why force everyone into it? Why should I waste a year of my life in terribly uncomfortable conditions, with high physical exertion that will make me faint in the first 5 minutes, with moral pressure and interaction with this stupid rabble, from which I will get infected and become the same, or even worse?
I'm not against defending my country, but only if there is someone to defend against, if it is reasonable, and if there are conditions that support it.
There was a reason to maintain an army, because there was an enemy.
I believe that there wasn't in the years of the War. People wanted to defend the country, not to satisfy their ego.
It's inhumane. I want to live in a humane and democratic country.

For health or for a bribe?

In general, power is only needed to control the herd, the masses, and consumers, because these people don't know how to live normally on their own.

The army is also needed for the rabble (discipline, getting rid of bad habits, etc. - this is ideally), although it is almost never beneficial to them. Usually, it's the opposite; although they were already like that, they become even worse in the army. If a person is normal, they will remain so even after the army (if, of course, nothing happens there, not everyone's psyche can handle it). I had a cousin who served somewhere in the south, and he was fine. He ended up in a good place and returned almost the same. So, the point is... Strict control and the like are needed for most people because, on their own, they become who knows what and interfere with the lives of others, loaf around, drink, and their innate chaotic nature leads them to commit crimes. In the past, people were forced to work, and they would even visit their homes if someone skipped work. Such measures can be introduced for these types of people, but they are not needed for the rest. So, power is mainly needed to protect these groups of people from normal people and to control them. That's basically it.
