The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

NATO and the U.S. should keep shoveling arms to Ukraine.

iirc, the US no longer gives Ukraine a nickle. The European countries are paying for the arms the US is shipping to Ukraine.

Some time ago, I wondered when the EU is going to say to itself "why are we paying for USian arms, so US companies profit, instead of giving the money to our own arms producers?". Since then, I have seen reports that Ukraine has contracted for a French air defense system, and is negotiating for Swedish Saab Gripen fighters. Maybe that is why Lord Trump has swung back to demanding Ukraine, effectively, surrender? Because US arms producers are no longer profiteering from the war, and Trump's priority, second to profits for himself, is the ease and comfort of Putin?
