Twenty plus years of losing foreign wars that were not only unnecessary but they didn't even have a clear objective (that both parties whole heartedly supported). Let me know when you get around to the socioeconomic factors, I've been waiting my entire life.
Friend, America is a warring state. We explicitly, intentionally ignore domestic issues while writing legislation that benefits the wealthy class, and then use foreign crises to distract the population from doing something about it.
What is your point? Ukraine is a line item in the US budget. We spent, what, 20 times that giving handouts to billionaires in 2020?
Let me know when we are allowed to spend money on socioeconomic factors. Literally the only thing holding us back from it are the disingenuous arguments people choose to believe. The same people lecturing about students paying back loans sure did turn a blind eye to PPP forgiveness. Why is that?
The people committing violent crimes don't have student loans. Paying them off would be a massive upward wealth transfer to the best off, highly educated professionals living in high cost of living areas.
Homie, the middle class is rapidly eroding and soon it will only be the hyper-rich and the impoverished, if we cannot make drastic changes to our socioeconomic policy. "Best off" is hardly a descriptor for the average college graduate that I know; Most everyone is struggling.
