    US gets to do very real long term damage to a hostile nation without risking any American lives? All while gaining battlefield knowledge and liquidating aging munitions? Sounds like a great investment to me.

        Are you blaming funding Ukraine for the lack of funding for healthcare or teacher pay? Because I think we all know the $$$ might as well be Monopoly money at this point and the US could fund these things if it wanted.

        You spout a popular right wing talking point. It stems from the misinformed belief that governments don’t budget and everything is in one giant pot of money and that governments can only do one thing at a time.

        Countries don’t work this way. Your argument is meaningless and incorrect.

          Name one instance in your lifetime where Republicans have fought for affordable health care.

          You’ve drank so much USA koolaid that you can’t see any other way that a country could possibly be run
