    I love how sick Americans have to tighten their belt to give weapons to a hopeless endeavor. It’s like, “honey, kids, I know we’re short on food and medicine, but i gotta go gamble our money away. We’ll score big this time!” Totally delusional.

      We’ll score big this time!

      More like “Our military industrial complex will strike big time” - and note this isn’t even gamble for them since they get the cash no matter what will happen, this is just ordinary fund transfer from taxes to private pockets.

      I’ve seen people claim it will boost the economy greatly. It’ll trickle down guys! We’ll see what happens really. Ukraine gets new weapons though. Wonder if that’ll backfire.
