I was gonna title this "And here I sit so patiently waiting to find out what price you have to pay to get out of going through all these things twice" and then write "Stuck inside of America with the fascism blues again" here, but I'm not sure if that comes off like gloating and that's honestly the last thing I want to do this morning.

choose to extend a war in Ukraine and send 100 billion to Ukraine while their own are struggling.

a) they didn't start that war,

b) out of all the stupid shit our federal government spends money on, why fixate on this one?

c) rich people and companies are under-taxed anyway, so it's not like we're hurting for potential revenue. We have more than enough money to fund Ukraine's defense and take care of poor people.

what people live under is what matters

That much I agree with and have known since George W Bush won the popular vote in 2004 despite there being no WMDs in Iraq and all sorts of civilian casualties because gas stayed cheap
