Doesn't that embarrass you as an American for those that live in this country?

ukraine is basically our 51st state at this point - we're paying the salaries of government officials and soldiers over there. the place is on life support and we won't let it go. it's on biden to call this shit over with.

And since when have Republicans gave a damn about spending money on roads and bridges at home?

They all voted against the Infrastructure Bill and are now taking credit for it because roads and bridges are being built in the counties represented by MAGAS.

It's not about Ukraine

It's about putting Russia on life support

OP is lying, we've been revamping our roads since the 1700s, there is no number for that.

Republicans never lead the way on this.

The money is much better being spent on tax cuts for the wealthy.

Infrastructure projects didn't cost billions in the 1700's, genius.

but if people decide to charge the next generation for their contribution, instead of fully appreciating the meaning of bringing another life into this world. why stop at billions?

You think the infrastructure bill was really about "infrastructure"? :oldlol: At best you are naive, at worst a total moron. My guess is the latter

Depending on how you define it, only 10-30% of the bill actually went to infrastructure which is why the Republicans were against it. Get this, when Republicans protested the original crazy bill loaded with pork, the Democrats instead of just cutting out the bullshit, kept a lot of the pork but cut the actual infrastructure spending by 20-30%. If Democrats actually gave a damn about spending money on roads and bridges at home they wouldn't have tried to shove in a bunch of pork and earmarks. Only stupid people believe the fight over this bill was the infrastructure spending

Wrong. Republicans opposed it because it was Biden's plan.

Jut like they opposed the Affordable Care Act because it was Obama's plan.

Both are wildly successful now and the Republicans are trying to take credit for both without an ounce of shame.

It was opposed because there was more money there for Ukraine than for infrastructure. More money for Lesbian Dance Studies too. Your fave.

Republicans demanding infrastructure spending? Sure, right after they supported more Medicare spending.

Like we've spent more in just one year? Sure. But over the existence of the US? No way lol

We spend $36B on our own infrastructure just last year. And if we dumped more into our own country it MAGAs would complain about inflation.

Someone doesn't have a clue on how inflation works. How does investing in infrastructure affect inflation? The government printing money and putting it in people's hands does though. But why am I bothering with OTC who's been wrong at every turn in regards to USA inflation lolz

If we print up $75B and pay workers in the US for infrastructure it puts money in their hands and increases the supply resulting in inflation. It's the same thing you absolute retard :oldlol:

That's why conservatives had issue with Bidens infrastructure bill. More money printing. Meanwhile you were at home drooling with your thumb up your butt.
