Link post and topic page so I can check that
It does matter
Eventually people get tired of seeing their tax dollars sent to some corrupt shit hole on the other side of the planet especially when problems in the US itself are not addressed by this shit administration.
Voters see the national debt skyrocket and in the end voters make a difference not the elites. November 2024 is going to be interesting.
By the way the last aid package was held up for how long? 6 months? Let me remind you that US aid for Ukraine is vital.
What is the value proposition of continuously funding the war campaign only enough to prolong it? Even with the last round recently clearing Senate, there does not seem enough there to bolster Ukraine to retake ground. Best is hold their current lines and better leverage for negotiations?
There is the sentiment among US populace our tax would be better spent in the US. Then there is the concern the spend is putting US into a more risky global position. Haven't completed my calculus on the state economy impacts this far along, but it's fair to say RU economy resilient during war like this. Aspects of US life between COVID and this conflict clearly on the down and US is just doing proxy, RU playing direct.
The war spend calculus doesn't make sense. Id rather US focus on one combat zone with a polar strategy (bomb and aid strategy, either bomb or aid not both)
