the last time this was true, it was only true because the America government had gone into a planned economy for WW2
we already did that, that's where the Ukraine aid came from, we don't got much more to sell off
not to such a degree, also Israel is one of the big arms producers, if you exclude military aid from the US, they have been selling more than they have bought
how? higher oil prices? that's a detriment to the "western" economies and a boon to nations like SA, RU, etc... that's why Russia has been trying to increase the oil prices, because they know it will harm western economies
