Russia even did something completely new. They're letting new recruits write off private debt!
As in, you owe me 76.000 euros for, I dunno, a fancy car. You join the military, and suddenly, you don't owe me anything anymore. Yay for you (and sucks to be me. Good thing I can always enlist if I get into financial trouble)
I mean... Can't get any money from a dead guy anyway so sure why not.
Sure you can, if the military pays death benefits you seize them! But now what a soldier can do is take out hefty loans to pay off the debt of family and friends before enlisting and then leaving the lenders ultimately holding that bag. Might end up with a credit crisis even with 21% loan shark style interest rates
If you don't complain we may allow you to live a little longer.
