    Counterpoint: the US made bank being the enforcer of the rules based order. But being the most wealthy country in the world is apparently not enough. And to be direct, the US was the one rattling russia’s cage the past 30 years… and now it all escalated you cannot just nope out without consequences.

    And in regards to money spent… the us sends weapons… meaning all the money stays in country, adding to the Pentagon budget for new kit. The EU mostly keeps Ukraine afloat financially… so they can pay their soldiers etc…

        All that freedom dividend was spent on a lot of US goods… your economy outpaced everyone due to being the country with the industrial capacity to sell.

        And the US military is your social security for minorities and economically depressed… all the way up to the MIC.

        The US profited most of the whole situation and now you are here to claim you where actually the victim?

        Feels more like a shill trying to sow division. How’s the price of butter doing?
