Recruiting down

I saw this satistic earlier today and I'm sort of suprised at how much it bugs me. I'm sort of hoping that the answer to why is "good economy/better jobs" instead of "disenchanted with the country/don't support the war."

Military Update: Black Army recruits down 41 percent since 2000

The article mentions that it's more difficult to track Marines, and it doesn't mention the Air Force or the Navy. I imagine Navy recruiting may be a bit easier, since as far as I know, the Axii of Evil and/or Terror aren't known as naval powers.
