Every single one of you is paying 30% to 50% more to live, and you know it. And the aid you need to cope with inflation? Biden used it to fund another country’s war instead.
They said that when our country got a whole generation of young men killed in Vietnam and wasted over a trillion dollars. They said it when we treated Saddam Hussein the same way what’s-his-name is Ukraine is being treated now back in 1983, funding his war against Iran and giving him an arsenal, before we went to war against him. Twice. People still pretend that our attempt at maintaining a permanent war in Afghanistan was magically a good thing, even though we wasted several trillion dollars and ultimately learned it was completely unsustainable.
Canada has universal health care and you know how much they spend on war?
23 billion a year.
Stop repeating slogans that make absolutely no sense given our military history since WW2, and please also stop pretending that neglecting our people to blow up other countries is virtuous.
Meanwhile completely ignoring the notion that Russia had no intention of stopping in Ukraine, and had their sights set on Moldova and other regions next. Ukraine is a democratically elected country that was taking steps to join both the EU and NATO, a partnership closely linked to the US and one that the US is a member of.
Also completely ignoring that a lot of the retail inflation we’re seeing is tied to corporations juking the prices and blaming it on inflation, while they collect record profits.
But hey, troll dicks are small, and their mental capacity even smaller.
What I’m discounting is that we’re somehow good guys for neglecting our own people’s basic needs in order to fight yet another war we don’t need to, especially in a time when we’ve spent the last eight years being on the evil side while helping Saudi Arabia starve and decimate Yemen. The only people pretending we’re the good guys here don’t have any concept of geography or our country’s role in the other eight wars we’re involved in right now. We already spend nearly a trillion a year on war, so tacking another hundred billion on top of that isn’t insignificant.

I’m not ignoring that. I’m annoyed that we elected Democrats a majority and they did absolutely nothing meaningful about it while instead flushing tens of billions of dollars that we need down the toilet for another country’s war. And I’m annoyed that, with 98% of voters caring about nothing other than team color, I’m powerless to do anything about it.
Dunno why you’re all downvoting.

Because “funding other people’s wars” is better than waiting a couple years till it’s our war too…
Did you forget about WW2?
Yeah, that’s what people say every time.

Why are you talking about Vietnam?
Vietnam is the reason we support with money and not bodies…
“Another country’s war.”
