Politics thread:
Featuring the least flexible leftoid mental gymnast:
Bernie said it best: "We should always have a debate [about military spending], but the problem is that Ukraine is in the middle of a very intense war right now, I think every day counts, and I think we have to respond as strongly and vigorously as we can."
Maybe we could tax corporations more to pay for this tho instead of continuing to fleece the American people to line the pockets of Raytheon and Lockheed Martin.

Their GDP in 2020 was 150B USD. Their military budget was 6B.
So they're getting nearly one third of their GDP and 6.5 times their annual budget's worth of weapons in a month. As a fun fact: Russia's last year military budget was around 60B.

Depends on how much hardware they receive from westoids. Ruskies have spent their early vehicle advantage on a rush that failed due to extremely cost-effective defensive tactics and western intel. Add to that a stunted Russian production, it might be just a matter of time until the Ukranians achieve hardware parity, and overall superiority.
