To what end?
What actual threat did Russia pose to NATO, prior to the Ukraine war, that justifies the (likely) trillions in global economic costs, hundreds of thousands dead, and the domestic opportunity cost for NATO (US especially)?
To the end where the Military Industry in the US get all the contract.
As I pointed out, this war is not about justice, not about democracy, I would say this war for America is not about Ukrainian life too. This war, like all wars since Korean War, is about one thing. A giant advertisement for arms maker.
The issue here is, the US can close out this war by dumping everything to the Ukrainian at once, screw Russia, they can't do shit anyway, but instead the Congress is giving Ukraine tiny bit of pieces here and there, 30 Abrams, 100 Bradley and so on, those aren't enough to push the war in favor of Ukraine, what this achieve is, they made good advert for BAe land system or GM to sell contract. HIMARS sales went up 100% (from 105 order to more than 200 with new order from Romania, Poland, Australia, Latvia, Estonia, Lithuania, Morocco and Taiwan), Javelin production is now triple, this war put Europe into panic mode and when people panic, they buy stuff.
This is about politics, you put the money in a school, it made turn up a few PhD, it may not, but if you put the same money in a war, you earn contracts, and that in turn generate more revenue and prolong the war, kind of like how Rockstar prolong the development of GTA VI and milk GTA Online for as long as possible. US Government always going to choose putting money in war because it generates revenue for them it's a positive gain, while you dump resource if you put those money in hospital or school.
If you want social program, then you probably need to move to a welfare state, or why do you think I made the move to Australia??
