That is not a lot of money. Trump spent trillions on the pandemic, then Biden spent trillions more.

Very little homeland infrastructure work going on here right now. The current administration would rather give these dollars to Zelensky and Ukraine so it can be laundered back to DC.

They aren't integrated into the EU and are basically subjugated to Russia, due to Russian interference.
Sorry. I don’t see their trade with us growing by 10x to make this an economic investment.

It wasn’t. It was a reference to:

You have a look at comments by people like Lindsey Graham and others that are saying our ultimate goal is to get rid of Putin. if you didn’t say it, it rhymes with them.

You don't understand how adding a potentially powerful economic and military ally at the expense of a chaos agent who sees itself as our rival ( ) would be beneficial to the US?



Uh, sparky.....if they are such a military ally then why are we sending them all of our weapons??????

Ukraine as an 'ECONOMIC" ally. Where did you go to school Berkley? An economic ally is someone who actually benefits you. Lets pretend for a moment you do understand economics. We sell Ukraine 2.16 billion in goods and they sell u 1.1 billion in goods...annually. Now lets assume the billion in trade surplus amounts to about 10% in profit (thats VERY generous) that would mean it would take us...at the current date, about 1,230 years to break even on our relationship with Ukraine.

a. Then they didn't pay enough.


Actually they did. This discussion always befuddles me on how ignorant people can be regarding actuary charts, net present value of dollars, and very basic statistical analysis.

Two problems facing SS. One, every president, beginning with LBJ raped the interest for various other uses. Law prohibited touching the nest but not the interest, which should have been far far larger than the primary funding at this point.

Second, the relaxed threshold for disability, which under obama became a mere headache or hangnail.

Slowpoke, carry on at some point you have to get something right in this thread. Wrong, see there you go again confusing permutations with combinations, a miscalculation that built Vegas.
