Can we offer this Ukranian solider a scholarship?

You won't believe how good the ROI is on that $100b a year.

The US is going to keep spending in Ukraine because they can't afford not to.
Reasons include sending a message to autocrat land grabbers, battlefield intel, willingness of the Ukrainians to fight and die for their country, Western supremacy, surplus equipment designed to fight Russia in the 1980s otherwise rotting or rusting away.
All of the shit the US has given from an equipment standpoint is at least 2 generations outdated.
And the birds in the sky are watching in awe as a former vassal state gives big bad Russia all it can handle.
On the bright sight to anti Ukrainian tug poasters, the US is starting to produce shells and munitions at a fast rate which are providing high paying blue collar jobs to Americans. Those people are then buying shit in America.
Europe is starting to pull more weight but they have much room to improve. It says a lot about Europe when Poland would probably wipe the floor with Germany, Italy, and France at the same time
Though France is interesting. They have nukes and capable forces, and Macron is talking about French troops in Ukraine if Russia breaches the front lines.

So we went from this spend will have a big ROI, to we better spend it or we are fucked. My dumb (but hot) marketing girls come in and pitch great ROI on programs they want budget for, and then when it doesn't lift sales they still say it worked because you wouldn't want to see the sales without the shitty spend.
Printing money to build shells and justifying it as economic stimulus is fucking retarded too.

Such an experienced businessman should know that ROI cost increases in column A can be a result of increased services in columns B.
Whether or not you think the services are worth it is your call Mr CFO.
The "Let Russia conquer whoever they want" roi is MUCH more expensive, not that your peanut brain thinks that far down the line.
Roi superiority guy. Sorry your bidness went bankrupt. Shoulda got a ppp loan

Doesn't really sound like the tone shifted

Still “Defending Democracy” by seeking to suspend human rights standards, indefinitely suspend elections, and:
It appears that martial law is the next phase of Volodymyr Zelensky's plans for Ukraine.
Ukraine just submitted a request to the Council of Europe asking for a partial deviation from having to comply with the European Convention for the Protection of Human Rights & Freedoms.
The text of Ukraine's request specifically delineates that during a state of emergency, it wants human rights to be "temporarily" limited, allowing Zelensky to basically become a dictator.
Among the rights that Zelensky wants to "temporarily" suspend are:
- Free elections
- The right to residential privacy
- Secret correspondences
- The right to non-interference in personal and family life
- Freedom of movement and choice of resistance
- Freedom of thought and speech
Zelensky also wants to be able to impose the following measures without public input or approval:
- Forced expropriation of private or communal property
- Mandatory curfews
- Forced entrance into and exit from the country through special modes
- Restricted movement of citizens and foreigners
- Government intrusion into people's personal belongings, transportation, and housing
- Forced military service for individuals and legal entities

What do we get for 100b a year?
From fucking Ukraine😂
-
Pennies on the dollar ROI apparently.
-
We? don’t get shit. DC politicians and their donors do continue to enrich themselves there, as do night club owners.
-
-
We prevent a possible WW3
-
What about Israel PGOS?
An actual democracy
-
pfffft 😂
do you work for Blackrock? -
PGOS is back to USSR 2.0. So, "However much it costs, for a long as it takes." A winning strategy for the US since the Korean War draw. For some reason, they negotiated a settlement.
-
Meanwhile world War 3 will start in the mideast under bumbling weak dumbfuck Biden
-
-
Its not a grift though, its about saving democracy.
-
-
Surely Kharkiv will fall any day now.
The US has Tijuana on the ropes this time!!!
-
Berlin is next.
-
Pennies on the dollar is how much of our money is actually making it to the frontlines.
-
Which is still enough to stop Tug favorite Russia, hilariously
-
So whatever we have accomplished could have been done for pennies on the actual dollars sent had we cared about eliminating the grift?
-
Russian stooge
-
It's crazy that asking that your money is spent effectively is Pro-Putin. But here we are.
Joking aside, there is likely to be mutiny from the troops when they find out that the oligarchs and the government stole the money that was intended to build stuff that would prevent them from getting killed. Weird how no one wants to sign up to fight.

Too bad we didn't tell Ukraine they were never getting into NATO and cut a deal before the war started or at the first temporary Russian stalemate. Or now.
-
-
One would think that a long-term ceasefire or peace deal would be enough to lift martial law and get back to democracy. Zelensky has the goods on Biden, he'll be defended until he spills them, then cut loose. Case closed.
