How can US afford throwing billions of military equipment for nothing?
Is it because the equipment actually grossly overvalued and most of the money goes into the pockets of politicians?

Ofc. Remember the DOJ 40k staplers? Ukraine will get a small percentage of the weapons and the soldiers themselves will get a small percentage of that.

Simple. The US has the reserve currency of the world. They are in a position where they can print the money and export their inflation since all the countries in the world want dollars so there's a global demand for their fiat but that has a limit. For example, they printed too much in 2020 and 2021 that's why you're seeing double digit inflation in the US of A in 2022 even with rising interest rates.

Not even close to “most.” Politicians get a tiny cut. That weapons laundering has utility in all kinds of clandestine geostrategic operations, that is the primary benefit, and the rest filters into international finance, which allows us continue not paying debts without immediate consequences.

Politicians and the manufacturers who make them. During peace times the weapons companies literally have coniptions over lack of business.

You guys realize that every single bit of military aid that the USA is giving to Ukraine is a loan, right?

The same way the US has financed every other major conflict since WWII, the Ukraine government will have pay all that aid back with interest, which is going to be practically impossible with their GDP.
Britain only finished paying off their WWII debt to the US in 2020, so imagine how long the US can subjugate a small country like Ukraine.

So not only are they making money, the US is able to act like they’re a charitable organization giving help to a country fighting for its freedom.

I never said that you disgusting brown ID ass blasted nigger. I said that the only reason why the US has double digit inflation is because they can export it to the world and it's why they can run a deficit since Bretton-Woods happened if they hadn't they would be running triple digit monthly inflation and would be just like Venezuela.

The only non brain dead post ITT. It’s a lend lease Act same as in WW2. Fun fact Great Britain just finished paying back their WW2 debt to the US in 2006. The US will get its money back whether it’s from Russkies who consume all of Ukraine or the puppet government that’s allowed to exist by the Russians after this is done

When a country gets annexed their sovereign debt doesn't exist anymore so if Russia wins the US will get shit on a platter not that they give a shit anyway bc voodoo economics

Meanwhile the coal reserves in the Donbass alone are worth over 10t dollars not mentioning the fact that Russia now controls most of the industrial noble gas production of the world, add rare earth minerals to that and you control the supply of semiconductors by proxy. It's literally gg for the west.
