Russia is not a military threat though. It has an economy the size of Italy. Three US states each have bigger economies than Russia. The US blew past it on every level militarily, technologically, and economically decades ago.

It has nukes but Ukraine doesnt solve that.

Community Notes: Russia is literally invading a US ally right now.

So what?

USA is not the world police.

If there's no strategic interest or benefit I don't think I should have to work a few extra hours per week to help pay for that war.

>no strategic interest or benefit

There is a lot of strategic interest in the US helping against Russia.

Then vote for different politicians or move countries.

These current politicians are continuing to skyrocket the national debt.

I don't have to vote for new politicians. I just have to wait for the dollar to collapse.
