The bill was approved after proceedings that were hailed by the Senate majority leader, Chuck Schumer, as 'one of the greatest achievements the Senate has faced in years'

"The greatest achievement in years" is taking from the American worker and giving those earnings away to foreign governments. 😂 Cant make this stuff up.

Well, you definitely did just make it up.

Its the USA. That money isn't going to the American worker no matter what its used for lol. Better it be used to defend an ally than whatever else they had earmarked it for.

That aid money goes right into the coffers of US weapons manufacturers.

Lots of conservatives suddenly developing an interest in education and social welfare. Why have you voted against social welfare funding for decades and in favour of tax cuts for billionaires and the reinforcement of corporate interests?

Allowing putin's expansion would be far more expensive. Do you think destabilising an entire continent and encouraging china to act in the same way against taiwan would not have huge implications for the economy?

This is a travesty. 34.6 Trillion in debt. Why can't the E.U. print money and go Trillions in debt?

@pbasista 19 дней назад

To clarify, EU does not have its own currency. Only the Eurozone countries do. And they are also have large debts. But despite of that, the EU collectively was able to secure a ~50 billion euros worth of aid package for Ukraine earlier this year. So, the EU does its part as well.
