Struggling US taxpayers trying to feed the family, keep a roof over their heads, and the lights on, are being relentlessly gouged for two stupid wars that have nothing whatsoever to do with Americans’ safety and security.

And it wont stop there.

RAND PAUL: “....they expect us to finance the clean up AND the rebuilding.”

Ukraine is hurriedly destroying several neighborhoods to up the ante.
Same with the money-slobberers in the insatiable Middle East.

And who’s going to have to pay for it all? We, the people, that’s who.

Having a reason isn’t a Constitutional authority though.

You sound like a 1980’s Democrat. The USSR threatened the US homeland.

Oh we’ve been Sugar Daddy to the world since around 1942 or so, definitely since 1945. Seems like a fairly dumb rhetorical question to ask. After all we rebuilt England, France, Germany, Western Europe, Japan, Southeast Asia and more than a few more countries. And one could argue that we pulled all of the Warsaw Pact, the former USSR components and even China back into financial viability.

A huge chunk of Lend-Lease went to the Soviet Union.
