If we can simply print the money to fight the war, without consequence, then why wouldn't we?

If you give a child $11B in toys, they are going to want to play with them.
Wars aren't permanent, but War is.

How does that amount compare to the amount we laundered to Ukraine?

Let's confront the fraud in this country to pay for the war. Will have some change left over.

You idiots believed the WMD crap too. You just keep eating it up. Look like fools.

It’s all fine and well to have this info (and thanks for it) and all but you also have to remember not acting also has costs

Still less money than the US gave to Ukraine for nothing.

But war is part of the fraud.
How about we deal with the fraud, then use that money to pay down our debt so our dollar might be worth something again some day.

And we spend about 40 billion a year on Iranian missle and drone countermeasures for shipping, the Gulf States, and our military bases in the region.

This is pretty cheap compared to the money wasted in Ukraine for absolutely nothing.
Thanks for pointing it out OP.

We gave hundreds of billions to Z and Ukraine. I'd rather our military spend it. We tend to get shite done.
