There's no rewards in modern warfare.

In ancient times, if you win a battle, you get to loot the supply train and the dead soldiers.
If you sack a city, you can earn more than 10 lifetimes worth of wage + an all you can rape buffet.
If you board a ship and take it over, you get a split on the sale value of that ship. A whole ship that 20 rich merchants pooled money together to buy is now yours to split with 50 other crew members. Plus all the cargo and other loot.
You can take slaves to be sold later.

In modern warfare, looting is illegal. Raping is illegal and will get you shot. You can't take slaves. The only compensation you get is shitty low tier salary. Meanwhile the battlefield is much much deadlier.

Going to war in the modern era is an absolute meme.

Not only loot but you'd be rewarded lands and if showing much bravery even titles, being part of the nobility from a simple soldier status.

the "rules of engagement" hahaha. You have to get shot at twice before you can engage. What a joke.

this is also true. You can go from literally bottom tier of society to top 1% in a single battle. That is impossible to do in modern warfare.
>>
>>524562941
No, but for about the past 20 years someone could land in the top 10%, sort of.

Your examples are comparing everyone classical battles to just modern grunts in modern war. The people ending up with titles and lands weren’t peasants, they were minor nobility or career military men. The peasants did get to loot and rape though.

There are career military men now who can earn $250k a year (that’s the top 10% of earners) by working as mercenaries. Or, as they’re called in Western media, “private military contractors.”

Even during the Civil War soldiers were paid well. Privates made $13 a month. Rural houses (where the vast majority of people lived) were around $500. Suburban homes are now $410k, so private would need to make about $130k to be equivalent. And just as then, you could theoretically make enough in two years for a smaller, more modest house.

In WW2 the real decoupling happened, and propaganda was the main tool of recruitment. Anyone working any job could earn a living wage in the 40’s. Just go to the factory and meet the boss, and by lunch time you’ll be stacking boxes in a warehouse and earning enough to buy a house and raise a family in one income in a 90% white city (not suburb; literal city).

I read a theory a while back that if the people in charge are prepping for WW3, it’s in their interest to keep everyone financially desperate. In the days of the internet, people won’t fall for propaganda as easily. And if they’re financially content, there’s no mechanism to get them go to war.

I've seen people argue that wasn't true even people like John Hawkwood and Hideyoshi existed

There’s no way the battlefield was more deadly in Yugoslavia, Afghanistan and Iraq those were basically NATO safari vacations.

Based and accurate.

Do you people really want the aftermath of war to be stealing, raping, and pillaging innocent people?

Do the losers of war deserve such a fate?

The elite would never share the spoils of war so this policy would bring in an age of peace.

This, create special units with no Geneva convention, give them a 6 figures salary and watch how you won't need a draft for ww3.
