This is all for a great cause—increasing the wealth of military industrial company shareholders!
Here’s what I suggest:
Take the $1500 that I still am awaiting to receive from Obama for his ObamaCare Act, and simply apply that promised $1500 to my Ukraine bill. Then don’t ask me for any more. We’ll just call it even.
So, we’re about to lose again? How shocking! /s
Rhymes with Ukraine.
I saw an article posted here that USA is spending around $450 billion on the newly arrived immigrants.
Serious, if we stop spending on crap, we could cut Federal Income taxes 100% and we would be no worse in what our government provides to us.
Full court press by the Moscowphiles to sacrifice Ukraine. What country will be next? Moldova? Lithuania? Romania? Or will he move East - snapping up some of the ‘stans that managed to free themselves when the Soviet Union collapsed? Lotta natural resources in Kazakhstan, doncha know. One or two of Putin’s boyars would love to get total control of those.
Ukraine cannot win and they will lose as soon as we stop funding pretty much the entire country and it's war effort.
All we are doing is delaying the inevitable in another profoundly destructive forever proxy war with hundreds of thousands of Ukrainian and Russian kids getting offed or mangled for life in the process.
Worse, our politicians and military leaders are enabling the carnage when they should be driving for a negotiated settlement.
But no settlement is possible because Russia is winning and after two years of being bled, Russia is not going to extend the favorable cease fire terms they were willing to accept in march of 22.
No way can Biden our pols accept the harsh terms the victorious Russians will demand in an election year.
So more Ukrainians and Russians will have to die or have their lives destroyed to keep the ball rolling. And it's all being done in our names .
I am an unreconstructed cold warrior who has never met a weapons system I didn't like but I am ashamed and appalled at the evil our country is perpetrating
Yeah, but how much of that goes to “the Big Guy” via Crack-Pipe Hunter?
Okay, so $1,300 per household. Average household has 4 people, so that is $625 per person.
You want my money for Ukraine? You yourself come and take it out of my pocket. If you're successfull, good for you. If you aren't successfull....
Migrant crisis has US taxpayers on the hook for up to $451B, House GOP report says.
Can I print my share on my home printer?
It’s probably double clout. They use all kinds of chicanery and shady accounting to get it that number. One of the things they love to do is to take an M1 tank, Bradley, or a missile that was built 20 or 30 years ago, they count the value of the weapon not at replacement cost, but as a fully depreciated piece of equipment. One of their really hilarious tricks is to say they were going to cut up that Bradley anyway, and that would cost him money to do. So they even give it a negative price tag and claim they were saving money.
The American consumer can't afford new debt as we face a very large global recession.
That means the US government will create debt to prop up our economy - and what better way of creating a new debt cycle than spending it on things that are not durable goods - bombs, bullets, tanks, and planes.
They're all a den of thieves. Every last one of them...
Maybe $4 million will actually make it to Ukraine.

You aren’t stopping that Gravy Train.
Watch, like Sessions and Barr couldn’t start an Investigation based on credible accusations - the DS will keep that money flowing.
Have you seen Zelensky in DC? He’s treated like a Rock Star!
Meanwhile, the illegal aliens that have entered, in the last 3 years are costing us $450,000,000,000 a year and increasing every day.

100 billion last year sent to Ukraine, mostly in older weapons out of a total US budget of 6.5 trillion, is a drop in the bucket.
Destroying our enemies military without one US injury or death is a worthwhile goal and an important warning to China. US spent 5% of its military budget(Donating mostly older weapons) to destroy half of Russia’s capability with the help of Ukraine.
