    Dude that’s not how that works. The US is giving physical items for the most part that equals that cost and we already have wasted the budget on them to help pay for rich people that stay rush by making weapons.

    Also it’s practically a loan that should Ukraine win the US will use them to be their next golden civilization and make the capitalists every red cent back of.

    But yeah should we spend less on military upfront and put it back into internal issues like teacher salary. Fuck yeah. But also we need way more taxes for that to really amount to much. It’s 2 prong of not enough and shitty spending habits. Hip hip hooray but I would never think we should regret trying to help people being killed
