It’s funny not really how similar the stuff is to the arms race bankrupting the USSR.
That was the USSR-something with some actual financial might.
It wasn’t a glorified gas station run by a KGB stooge playing 8D chess yet still at war 2 1/2 yrs later.
What you don't grasp is we and NATO countries are now the equivalent of the old Soviet Union and the ones on the verge of an economic meltdown because of our massive debt.
