Outsourcing proving less effective and more costly? Like that would ever happen...

As for the whole 'reserve' thing; let's see, just as much danger and crap conditions as a normal soldier but for even [LIFTED] wages and in the process pissing off the employer who actually keeps you in house and home. Yeah, you can kind of see why people aren't queueing out the door can't you?
