US Armed Forces Using NASCAR to Solicit Young Men
According to this article in last months’ NASCAR.com it does. The demographics of NASCAR fans match up well with the recruitment target of the United States Armed Forces. So that’s why you see so many military branches of the government going after the top racing teams in NASCAR.
ZuD is a bit beyond that demographic group but I can tell ya there are racing days that I used to get an uncontrollable urge to buy Reese’s peanut butter cups cause Harvick was up in the top 10 most of the day. So why not attract the attention of kids leaving high school and seeing few options ahead for employment, do what dad or uncle Jed did and join the Army?
I think that’s what makes some of these fine, intricately decaled cars do to us subliminally, so amazing. Drawing us into all kinds of involuntary attractions for products and services we may or may not need. I just hope the end result is good for these young men and women and don’t get confused with corporate greed or military staffing levels that may not be the best for America’s young.
