@KuteboiCoder @sun Guatemalan day laborers can't build a steel truss bridge. Indian engineers with fake degrees can't design one. The kind of mercenary willing to fight the kind of war America wants is an incompetent retard who will die right away. The smart mercenaries won't touch it with a 1000 mile pole. They have eyes and can see what's happening in Ukraine.

You can't simply buy replacements for rare human capital. There is no surplus of such people lying around the third world for anyone with a checkbook to pick up at a discount.
