There would need to be some explosion in the number and quality of PMCs for something like that to become viable.

PMCs have a strong incentive to run or skip serious conflicts. Killing some nigs in Africa to secure an oil well? Sure. Fighting the Russian army in the Baltic states or the Chinese in Taiwan? Sorry, no point in getting gibs if I'm not alive to spend it.

That's why traditionally the warrior caste rules over the merchant and labour castes

Yes. Generally they ruled societies for the simple fact that they held the sword and no other caste could oppose them. The advent of industrialization and democracy inverted this dynamic. Countries like France, Britain, and America became oligarchic republics where the merchant class ruled from the shadows. The electoral process was and is dependent on oligarch patronage, so these countries became merchant-run regimes. This in turn opened the doors for the Jews to decisively take power.

Since Jews controlled finance, they could control the industrialists and traders, who in turn controlled politics.

It's not a coincidence that Germany, Austria-Hungary, and Russia were the only great powers in Europe on the eve of ww1 where Jewish influence was not heavily felt at the top.

The Prussian military aristocracy ran Germany and the Russian aristocracy ran Russia.

This is true and it is also the reason why mercantile civilisations generally decline. Given a lack of other options, however, I think PMC could be one choice that the USA could recourse to, at least hypothetically.

Maybe they'll just drop standards completely and start recruiting ghetto thugs.

I think in case of war the US military would almost certainly have to drop its standards. I recall reading that apparently about 80% of military age men in the USA are unfit for duty. It is difficult to see how the army would be able to deal with such a massive problem.
