In addition, none of that money ever leaves the U.S. If $500 billion gets spent supporting Ukraine, that’s $500 billion that goes from Congress over to U.S. manufacturers, who create the supplies and then ship those over to Ukraine. The money goes straight back into the U.S. economy. (People can complain about it going mostly to arms manufacturers, but in this particular instance I feel like helping a friendly country protect itself from a hostile invading force is a pretty good use of that money)
