Yall are so easily distracted by the current shiny thing.

We racked up 30 trillion in debt before ukraine became a charity case. The amount we’ve sent Ukraine in money and material is wholly insignificant in comparison to our annual deficit.

Correct.

Citing Ukraine money as a concern for our debt/inflation shows that person is being irrationally partisan and not serious about the topic.

What we've sent Ukraine in dollars is less than 1 month of Social Security spending.

So why care about any spending if it’s insignificant? Heck, since we are in a debt spiral that we can’t get out of, why tax people at all?

So we could have given American Seniors extra month of benefits from the system they paid in to by not giving the Ukrainians spit? And it wouldn't have cost the tax payers one dime more? Sounds good to me.
