This is severe whataboutism. I'm not a fan of the MIC, and much money given to it could be better spent on other things.

But the reality is that money poured into the MIC to replace equipment we sent to Ukraine is not money that leaves the US economy, and it is absolutely essential to understand that when discussing the "cost" of this war to America.
