“ Social Security and Medicare are $2T a year”
Tucker said our leaders are planning to spend several trillion in Ukraine. America last
It figures that a neocon like you would be for that
That’s more than silly. Ukraine can’t absorb trillions. Its just not that big a country. Pre war its GDP was @150-160 billion. Assume one years GDP worth of “aid”, which is a huge amount, most likely unspendable, for reconstruction (Britain, France, Germany didn’t get that in the Marshall plan).
Whose ass did “trillions” come from?

It wouldn’t surprise me if the total tab were a few trillion. Afghanistan and Iraq were $2T in total, and those were really tiny wars.

The alternative to a couple of trillion might be $100T if we get to the point of all-out war with a Russia augmented with the territory of the EU, and a China augmented with the territory Japan never managed to hold on to during WWII. I look at Ukraine as a way to set Russian territorial ambitions back for decades, and to restrain Chinese ambitions.
I understand you (along with Tucker) think you can hide under your bed and all of this will go away. But the fact is, this is the way the world works, and we’ve been living in a dream world for many decades. Reality is about to intrude* again, and it’s best that we stop the rot before it comes any closer.
* You know it’s serious when both Germany *and* Japan start to rearm.
