So what’s being lost in all of this is why in the hell are both sides in favor so deeply in giving Ukraine foreign aid?

Am I the only one who could care less IF Russia invaded them? This brings me to the question, what strategic thing does Ukraine being invaded affect us? Or what resource do we lose if Russia invaded them.

No one can answer this so I really could give a damn about Ukraine and if Russia bombed them to nothing. I rather my god damn taxes to be used in my own country and not to a corrupt shite hole like Ukraine.

It ain't just Ukraine baw.

Dial up USAID and see how much of your money they waste.

This shite is going on in EVERY country we give aid to, not just this one.

Ukraine has a lot of oil/gas, also a port( Crimea) witch is already gone. It’s a proxy war right now, and it keeps Russia bogged down, which ain’t bad, strategically

More like they steal. Waste assumes the money goes to the country for whom it's intended.

How is Russia bogged down? They are engaged in operations in Syria. Where are they being prevented in being engaged? If anything this conflict provides jobs for a large population of dysfunctional unskilled Russian men to join these regional militias.
