Some people seem to believe that the 100 billion the US might end by spending to help Ukraine fend off the Russian invasion is some kind of charity, while Putin’s Russia poses no existential threat to the US.

As to the money, it’s pretty mean to whine about 100 billions against tens of thousands of destroyed lives, after Trump and Biden together have wasted more than 5 trillion dollars in the last few years. It’s also outright absurd to imagine that we don’t help the Ukrainians, the money saved will fix the problems in the US. Exactly how many problems have the last 5 trillions spent in the US solved? I mean, other than causing rampant inflation ?
