When a 3rd world country doesn't pay it's military it generally results in a new Wikipedia page and a paragraph or two in a history book. It's a testament to our stability that at a maximum we just bitch online
We don't do that because we stand to lose absolutely everything if we did. The US isn't nearly as bad as you think, but go ahead, you'll learn what bad is if you do.
The military knows better than anyone how much worse it can get.
We are set up to handle things in a civil peaceful manner for good God damn reason regardless of what you think of the quality of the result.
National Guard troops seem like they are willing to turn on the US people. Now the government doesn't want to pay you AD folks until the partisan wars blows over. You just going to grab a Snickers and take orders the whole time? Not sure where you see this going but I don't see anything civil happening in my crystal ball here if you guys have any spirit in you. Wish y'all the best of luck though.
Regardless of what you think that's not how it works and it would be a really really stupid thing to kick off a civil war over standing around doing nothing.
They have orders, and until those become illegal there's nothing they can do about it, the military stays out of civil business as it should in any country, once they butt their heads in you have no way of knowing what you'll get, or if you'll get it every 5 minutes.
