      Every dollar spent on Ukraine is more Russian blood in the ground. And we get to feed the MIC.

      Good ROI if you ask me.

        Plus, every dollar spent on Ukraine buys a lessened chance of other nuclear powers trying to invade their neighbors willy-nilly. If Russia is allowed to just invade whomever they want with minimal pushback from the world, that just emboldens more wannabe Putins to start wars of aggression or worse, build up nuclear arsenals.

      Ok then. When Ukraine falls, we’ll send in US troops to stop Russia. I take it you’ll be first in line to join them.

        If you haven’t been paying attention Ukraine is failing, and everything we’ve been told will happen to Russia has been a lie.

          So when you see a state fail when pulled into a war by a fascistic country, led by a psychopath dictator who has bigger desires of waging more wars after Ukraine falls, your proposal is to just let them go and fail? Do you need a history lesson on what happened a couple of decades ago when that type of appeasement went very wrong?

              Glad you recognize this as a war instead of the russian deceptive ‘special operation’.

              And there would be no war if russia did not start one. Lets keep the facts real.

                Russia only fired the first shot, the US/Obama started it years back. Let’s keep the facts real
