@dangillmor When is the financial cost to the western nations such as America too much to prop up Ukraine. ? When their currency is devalued ? When their credit score drops ? I don't know and not saying I do.

Presently the financial cost to the West is a fraction of what Russia is paying (in the ratio of about 2 to 15), and Russia is only as rich as Italy, nothing compared to the West. Should Russia succeed, it will absorb the human and material assets of Ukraine before attacking NATO. The West would then pay a much much greater financial cost, and start to pay the cost in blood now being paid by only Ukraine. |
@violinguy @dangillmor what was the American financial cost of the Marshall Plan after WWII?
whatever it was, the immense, immense economic and security gain is priceless
so it is with any money the USA spends on Ukraine
