Interesting. Whether US dollars or war materiel, it's still costing the taxpayer. But, hopefully, it IS allowing the US to replenish its armaments with new and modern equipment. I'm just not confident the Biden admin is actually resupplying us as he should be. Surely, the military industrial complex is doing their thing, and pushing for the additional business. Because I hate to think of us as practically "disarmed".

"A similar thing happened in 1915-1917 and 1936-41."

That statement scares the heck out of me. Look what happened shortly thereafter...

But the US rearming was not the cause of what happened after, rather it ensured that the USA didn’t end up like “the man in the high castle”.

The US didnt cause the events of 1914 or 1939 or 2022 (other than through inaction).

But yes indeed its a much more dangerous world right now.
