I dont disagree with your general premise.


But if you think 50 or even 200 billion to ukraine is what has financially crippled this country then you might need to do some more searching cause you lost the thread.

That's also ignoring that most of the aid isn't in actual dollars but an accounting of all the equipment we're sending over that was sitting idle and/or mothballed anyway.

We're shipping older gen tech over to expose Russia's military as weak and at the same time backfilling our arsenal with new shite. Money that will mostly stay within the borders of this country. Sure, it's to the military industrial complex and some of that money will be skimmed and grifted but most of it will go to American citizens working for those companies and their suppliers that produce our military equipment.
