    Or, instead of that, we could spend just want we need to in order to literally defend our own shores and let our people have the abundant, full lives they deserve.

    Canada only spends 26 billion a year on their military.

    Mexico spends 8 billion.

    All we’re doing is making a few warmongers rich and coming upw ith excuses to justify it.

      No saying you are incorrect but the obvious conclusion to Russia -> Ukraine is North Korea -> South Korea, China -> Taiwan, etc etc. I have a problem letting more democratic countries fall to dictatorships. We’ve been here before and ended up losing 500,000 American lives to defeat (temporarily) fascism.

      we’re saying the same thing roughly. I agree, but I think it’s an easier fight in $currentYear to tax the rich than defund the military/police.

        There is no easier fight here.

        The people are powerless.
