Zelensky confirms first Abrams tanks already in Ukraine - Lemmy

We’ve spent Trillions to counter Russia overvthe decades.

To support Ukraine in a proxy war that weakens, destabilizes or destroys Russia where no American soldiers die and we get to test out our arsenal in a real world scenario is a worthwhile investment not to mention the moral and humanitarian aspect.

Do we have problems at home? Yes but that’s never been a good enough reason to reduce military spending.

I do think the military budget is out of control and more money should be appropriated to the issues that mayter like healthcare but at this moment in time we should absolutely continue to support Ukraine.

We are the world leaders and other countries follow. We can’t let our support erode. We can’t let Russia win this one.

I mean, there would be easily enough money to both have the best military and the best public healthcare system in the world. The key is to tax the rich 0.1% properly.
You guys already pay more than you’d need for free healthcare, by far. The problem is all that money is going into pockets rather than…well… actual healthcare. www.cnn.com/2023/01/31/health/…/index.html
