Aids to Ukraine by percentage of GDP. For the USA it is .05 percent of GDP.

First, that chart is before the recent 40 billion.

Second, I don't give a rat's arse if it's .000000000001% of our GDP.

We've got real problems here in THIS country.

Why pay taxes if the government can just print unlimited amounts of money? We've done our part let Europe foot the rest of the bill it concerns them more than us.

We don't even have enough baby formula to supply mothers we are looking like a third world country.
Wow, I can't believe it. I agree with you on something.

And GDP is a BS number. It includes government spending. So because the government has already spent an insane amount of money that they manufactured out of thin air, it artficially makes numbers like this look low.

And arrest politicians that don’t abide by existing immigration laws.

It's the Biden's, and a whole lot of other people with their greedy fingers in the pie. They will gladly let Biden take the fall though.

This country has been sold out.

It's as heartbreaking as it is frightening.
