#2 Let's complete the cycle:

Equipment goes to Ukraine -->

Money to replace equipment for US Military goes to Pentagon -->

Pentagon gives money to US defense contractors to manufacture new equipment -->

Defense contractors make generous contributions to their pet politicians in the Beltway.

IOW:

Taxpayers get the shaft while defense contractors use the money to bribe politicians for even more. It doesn't matter who wins the war. When this one is over they'll find/start a new one. All that matters is that the money keeps flowing.

Pay attention here, Forkbeard. You and your countrymen are being used as cannon fodder by cynical American politicians who don't really give a rat's ass about you. See Vietnam, Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria, Libya, etc., etc., etc. If they don't even care about all the American boys who get killed, why would they care about you? Get it?
