Biden approves sending 31 Abrams tanks to Ukraine

24. If these tanks were not sent to Ukraine, we still wouldn't have M4A

Instead we'd have a Russian flag flying over Kyiv and still be without a good solution for our healthcare system. Your argument is a lot like the ones that complain about the "wasteful" space program with a 24 billion dollar budget. As if those are things preventing us from funding multi-hundred billion dollar or even trillion dollar programs. Neither of these are what's preventing that from happening.

Helping Ukraine defend itself against Russian aggression is exactly how we should want our defense monies to be spent. Is it a good thing? No! It would be better if we didn't have to, but much like in WW2, it is something that needs to be done. This isn't like us spending trillions of dollars in our own unnecessary and counter productive war of aggression in Iraq.

Maybe you can elaborate on how you believe the situation should be handled. I'm always interested in hearing different viewpoints.
