What a pant load of obama!
The Ukraine war is all about politics and grift.
It’s a pretty big moment.
There was once a standard reply to big spending programs: “How are you going to pay for it?” That question evolved because it was political and was intended to force the folks proposing the program to specify the taxes that would be raised.
But we have moved past that. There is no longer a presumption that taxes will be raised to pay for it, or anything. The concept is now borrow the money (from China, as Rand Paul says) and spend it.
This is generating disquiet, in both parties.
