So, as you see it, is that it costs you money? Well they probably don't care about your money. You should be smart enough to know that your wealth shouldn't be put above a country's population. DUDE they're fighting for their lives. No one is doing hands on to help them but themselves. Women, children,grandparents,husbands.. I commend those people for being as dedicated to their country as they are. Those citizens probably have never used a gun before but they're damn well doing it. It seems as those people are fighting a fight that most Americans wouldn't even thinking of doing. This country needs to be more pro-american than so much devided. That small under dog country is doing great in my book. Anyone else want to fight a super power country? I'm all about this underdog country's unity.
No, actually I don't want to go fight over there. In fact, I don't want ANY Americans fighting in Ukraine. What I want is for those slacker Europeans, who've gotten that way because American taxpayer dollars have provided their defense for the last several decades, to do something for themselves and their neighbors for a change. Why do they have all that stuff like great public transportation and national healthcare systems? Because that's what THEIR taxpayer money goes to, instead of into their military budget to maintain readiness. Meanwhile, their governments continuously badmouth Americans who aren't globalists, in other words, those who aren't happy to keep paying for Europeans' defense. And if anyone wants to jump down my throat about it, well, I'm a "retired" USAF E-7. I make ZERO claims to being ANY sort of hero, I just fix airplanes, but I did do a bunch of deployments, including quite a few for both the Bosnian mess and the Kosovo mess back in the 90s, as well as a few to the more airid parts of the world. My complaint isn't that I had to go somewhere, I did sign up and raise my hand for the job, and I'm very happy no one ever shot at me. Again, my complaint is the Europeans not handling their own business, and expecting the USA to always bail them out. We lost a lot of good young people fighting the terrorists only to give that back so they could build right back up. I really don't want a bunch of young Americans dying in Ukraine.
