And its not like they are sending troops or anythin
I HATE this argument.
Yeah, we’re not sending soldiers, but we’re still getting people killed for this war. You know why? We neglect our own people’s needs. There are people dying in heat waves that we could save with proper resources. There are diabetics who need insulin. We don’t have a health care system, and if you suffer a major injury or illness, chances are you’re dying or going bankrupt.
Our war spending gets our own people killed, just maybe not with a missile. There are real life consequences the poor and middle class experience because our government chooses to make war profiteers richer every single year.
But you know just as well as I do that this money would never go to those causes. It would either go straight back to the military budget, or to rich people’s pockets in the form of more business tax cuts.
Not a big fan of this “us or them” attitude. Ukrainians matter as much to me as Oklahomans, and a large part of our country’s wealth comes from extracting labor and resources from underdeveloped nations. It’s only right that we spend that hoard helping outside our borders.

Literally the only time you people whine about wasting money is when it’s used to keep a bunch of nazis away…frikin ayyyyyy.
