It does have bearing on the matter, considering that the money has to be payed back one day.

Just imagine the US being unable to pile up more debt, that alone would mean serious cuts to the defense budget.

Not even talking about reserving the funds to actually start paying that money back as that would probably mean scrapping most of the costly carrier fleet.

Having to be paid back one day is a different problem than one country (the US) spending a smaller percentage of its wealth on defense than another try-hard state.

Obviously I mean the amount of debt and that paying it back is going to be a huge problem.

You should stop clowning around, you're embarrassing yourself.

You're dodging. The US can't even stop piling up debt let alone paying it back.

I'm dodging nothing. You have no post history of mine supporting deficit spending, but are pretending that is a position I hold. Straw man comes to mind. You're intentionally conflating what is being paid for with how it's being paid. It's utterly dishonest of you.

You should cut the crap, US govt debt is a fact. There's literally nothing "dishonest" about mentioning US govt debt in a topic that's making fun of a single Russian carrier while it's obvious Russia never pursued more carriers (they built nuclear subs instead) and Russia's govt debt to GDP ration is like 1/10th that of the US'. You should get to grips with reality.

The US carrier fleet is basically borrowed, the US army and govt require such huge budgets that the US can't even stop piling up more debt let alone pay it back.

Russias economy is a little over half the size of the UK. Smaller than that of Texas.
Russia has probably 30% of the worlds natural resources but is not even considered a global superpower. Russia is a Potemkin superpower.
Global superpowers have blue water navies.
Ergo Russia's navy does not compare to the US or China.
The effect of Covid on US debt is magnitudes higher than the cost of the US navy.

This position is probably your worst yet and that takes some doing.
