A leading figure in the Biden administration has backed a recovery programme for Ukraine in the style of the Marshall plan, which helped rebuild Europe after the second world war.
Pete Buttigieg, the US transportation secretary, said there was plenty of political will at home and internationally towards cooperating in long-term reconstruction efforts including to buttress existing infrastructure in Ukraine.

Let Ukraine and the EU pay for it.
Why are we paying anything? It becomes graft back to Democrats.

We hear DECADES of Dem yammering about “our crumbling infrastructure” here in the USA and they are going to send OUR money over their to fix their crumbling infrastructure? WE get to pay for Putin’s invasion? We get to watch inflation soar to 30% per year by cranking up the printing presses?
WTH?

I will personally send a bill to all FReepers who supported Ukraine and, by consequence, all actions which follow being in bed with the left and this administration.
If the intent of this was to fracture the right, they succeeded gloriously, but at least we know who true FReeper Conservatives are now.

Ask Europe for the money, they’re fat with cash.
Why are WE paying for this ?
Time to cut that entire continent off the US taxpayer teat.
Past time.

Not sure why anyone would be surprised by this. Of course you and I are going to pay to rebuild. And we’ll also provide ongoing foreign aid dollars for their continued defense. This has all been planned out. Sit back and watch.

Buttplug should go back to South Bend and clean up the mess he made there.

The Marshall plan could not go into effect until AFTER hostilities had ceased.
Trying to apply it in wartime is a fool’s errand.

Fine, as long as we get half priced first choice wheat until the costs are paid back to us.
