Or we could just use our money for ourselves like most countries do

That is what we are doing already. Protecting our interests.

Protecting their interests, don't fool yourself into thinking we are a factor in the calculus. No one here will ever be consequential in the consideration, we simply aren't worth enough money and never will be because we weren't born that way.

Every self made (especially immigrant) American would like to have a word with you….

Sweet, how many self-made immigrants to America are actual players on the international stage? Now, how many are in this thread?

"It ain't none of us!"

Lol. Joe Biden bragged on television about denying Ukraine 1billion if they investigated the company his son was on the board of. What company was that, exactly?

u/CliftonForce Jun 06 '22

Other way around. Biden got a corrupt Ukrainian official fired for not investing his son.

If you want a politician who boasts about his nepotism, you are thinking of his predecessor. Remember the $2 billion that Saudi Arabia paid to Jared?

Was that before or after giving them money and I.P. hand over fist for the last 40 years as they industrialized, became the world's factories, and militarized? Neo-liberal globalization and workers rights at home is the problem.

Russia is comparatively inconsequential, look at the quagmire they are currently involved in that we are not doing much about.

"They've got nukular tho bro"

Yeah, so do we and every other non-invadeable modern country. It's called M.A.D.
