That user must be listening to lies and propaganda, and though they say you don't have to be an expert to say stuff about things, but I think this guy lacks proper knowledge to even be qualified to say things about economics, politics, those kind of things.As has been pointed out
It is Russia's fault this war started, and basically, whether or not I am reading the posts here correctly, I don't think helping Ukraine is hurting us economically. The lies and nonsense the republicans and maybe other people may spew from their mouths are just trying to get us to not help a country that is a fellow democracy like the United States. I can imagine all the reasons those people have against the war are just very bad.
Quote:US aid to Ukraine pales when compared with the $751bn 2022 US budget for defence spending or the $1.2tn paid out in Social Security retirement benefits, however. It is also just 1.8% of the total US spending in the 2022 fiscal year.
