Paul Krugman speaks for the lib mindset: "It's about $80 billion so far, which sounds like a lot but..." He also throws in a little horseshoe theory.

"Those silly anti-war folks"
Put 100 of Paul's favorite people in a room, shoot one - what? It's just 1%, Paul.
but is only a bit more than 1 percent of the federal budget
"...And besides, it's almost all just getting funneled directly into our Military Industrial Complex so it doesn't really count anyway"
also lol, using the entire federal budget's not trying to be intentionally misleading at all, right? $80 billion is almost 10% of our non-defense discretionary budget
It's interesting that liberals readily put aside "How are we going to pay for it?" if they like the idea. And they even say that if it's 1% of the federal budget - it's no biggie.
because Western economies are vastly bigger than Russia's
how is measuring using GDP working out for you, shithead
But providing housing for homeless is too expensive
Fixing homelessness is literally supporting Putin
You’re telling me that you can defeat Putler with 1% of the budget but housing roughly 700,000 people in the US is too expensive?
Yes.
There's one kind of money for war and bombs and cops and prisons and then there's a completely different kind of money for doing stuff that actually helps people. There is always an endless supply of the first kind of money and never any of the second kind.
And no, you can't get more of the second kind of money by spending less of the first kind. The moment you slack even the tiniest on funding death, destruction and violence the terrorists/Putin/the Jewish bolcheviks/scary ethnic crime people will come and take everything from you.
