    It’s a question of do we spend taxes on blacks and the poor, or do we spend it on cluster bombs for Ukraine.

    I want someone to enlighten me on this, because my impression was that the democrats were the ones on board with bombing for Ukraine and republicans wanted to cut that spending (publicly, cause both parties love that war spending for their buddies to make money from).

      This was also my impression, especially after the republican primary debate where they were scarily almost all anti-helping ukraine.

      Ya know… that’s not a bad point actually :)

      Ill ponder that one. Definitely going to alter my perspective on Ukraine a little, but I’m not entirely sure how just off the cuff.
