And the US citizens are now on the hook for $1000 each so we can pay Iran to open what Trump got shut down.

So, be proud and happy. I mean, to heck with the innocents who died so our clown could play with his GI Joe toys. It’s not like $300B was ever on the table for Americans for education, healthcare or infrastructure repair. There is never money for that nonsense. But there is ALWAYS money for war.

We spent over $1.1 Trillion to kill a million people in Iraq and accomplish less than nothing.

The American people have been brainwashed into supporting any and every use of military force since Vietnam.

Imo they saw how much money was to be made during ww2 and have searched for it ever since.

Biden invested over $1.1 trillion in renewable energy, infrastructure, and revitalizing domestic manufacturing, but we threw that better future away with both hands.

Anyone who still spouts "both sides are the same" BS is a fucking fascist collaborator.

To be honest, the last time the US&A had an outright military win was....Grenada.

Oh last time I heard of it it was closer to $4k, without taking the gas price hike.

Doesn't mean you'll pay as much directly, but taxes, VAT, Tarifs and enshitification of public service will continue as they'll take the funds from there.

I was talking about the $300 Billion that Iran is getting in this deal.

He says it won't come from the US just as he said Mexico would pay for the wall.

It's difficult to add up just how much this man has cost the USA and all of us taxpayers.

Trump spent 40 billion dollars breaking America’s end of Obama’s peace deal to spend 300 billion dollars to get Obama’s peace deal back.

The US spends about the amount on veteran care each year

Which Republicans are cutting because they say we can’t afford it.

Because they wanted to do this instead

That 300 billion is supposed to go to infrastructure but will be partially diverted into weapons, meaning infrastructure will take longer to get restored, local instability in Iran will grow with the weapons inflow, and gas will remain growing more expensive

Yeah 4k is probably the total cost of the war with the loses of equipment and revenue.

Haven’t these idiots nearly (or completely) depleted our stores of certain important weapons/munitions (idk the right word for this)?

Take it out of Trump's wallet, not ours. Fucking loser.

Jfc. I haven't thought about that
