My whole point is that we ALL pay a very big price when we continue to expand our investment into the military industrial complex.

And I certainly don’t just mean financially.

And what is your solution to all this? Please, enlighten us on how to fix all this if not continue like we are right now. Because I can assure you that your "opinion" on how it should be counts for NOTHING right now. Without proper defense, Ukraine falls, billions die, Europe follows.

I hear you and right now we’re both sharing opinions. I don’t have all the answers. But let me be clear, I think the US should continue to support Ukraine. It’s very important. AND I’m beyond sick of paying for bombs and jets that kill lots of innocent civilians. It’s enough.

Sentiment without teeth stops nothing. Dream of your rosy future with daisies and some grand utopia. It isn't something that will happen within ours or even the next 50-100 lifetimes.

The US has plenty of weapons to share. Perhaps we could stop supplying Israel with billions of dollars in weapons and send some a portion of it to Ukraine instead. There’s a lot we can do without making additional investments in weapons companies that US politicians own stock in.

Contracts are in place, & we all know how expensive it can be to break a contract. Military supply contracts are no different. Break it & it'll cost even MORE than what is being paid now. Unless you can get every last politician to divest of their stock, this is something else that will never stop.
