But when we continue to shell over billions for Ukraines military, it's totally cool?

Interest expense is going be higher than military next year.

@GunnelsWarren I'm sorry that it's so simple and repetitive, but ... #Bitcoin - fixes - this !!

$858 billion, and we're in a cold civil war. 😂😑 #CW2

You say it's obscene but then you also said that Trump was abandoning our NATO allies. We could reduce that $858 number dramatically if we weren't defending NATO and half the world. We should be military isolationists as we were before WWII.

The Total of all 14 of these Countries is still LESS than what the US is spending in ONE YEAR ... We have children that don't have enough to eat ... we have thousands of homeless men and women ... and we have people that can't afford their medications ... this is truly OBSCENE!

I agree too. The US should stop paying to defend every other country on the planet. Bring the troops home from overseas and let us protect our own borders.

And that doesn't include the black projects.

Not true anymore. The USA figure from this coming year’s military budget ( $858 B , a 4.1% increase, lower than the USA inflation rate !) is correct, but Russia alone is increasing its budget to 152 Billion! That’s 248 percent! The USA budgets IS being used to help Ukrainians.

Fear makes people--and even countries--do the most paranoid things. And yet historically, every country/civilization (except one) has fallen from corruption within. Not from invasion. And it's not so hard to read the signs of the times for the US and see which is most likely.
