Are You Willing to Die for Ukraine?

Before making up your mind on Ukraine read this.
This simple and profound question is the fundamental issue when it comes to deciding how to respond to Putin’s declaration of war in Ukraine. All of the usual suspects in terms of bloviating politicians and frenzied pundits are filling the airways with the modern version of “Remember the Maine.” They are desperate to rally the American people for a new military venture overseas. Our military-industrial complex has no qualms about feeding gullible Americans into a war meat grinder. The usual approach is to sucker patriotic folks into believing they are defending freedom, protecting democracy or destroying tyranny.

And they do this without any self-awareness or irony. Hundreds of thousands of illegal immigrants flood across our southern border and the cast of despicable characters hollering about the sanctity of Ukraine’s border with Russia do not say a damn thing about protecting our border. Just count up the number of Republican Senators and Representatives who are saying we must act strongly against Russia and have remained mute on our own border security.

The Washington political class–both Democrat and Republican–thinks you are a fool. Apart from ignoring the threat of illegal immigration and the accompanying flood of lethal narcotics, the political class tolerates the descent into hell of our major cities wracked by violent crime. No, they want you to fight the Russians.

There was a time when I would have given my life for the United States. Now? Not so much...

Fight to protect one of the most corrupt governments in the world? lol.

From the OP article:

Chew on this fact–our so-called democratic Republic is holding more political prisoners in the United States than Vladimir Putin is holding in Russia.

1. I don't know if that's true, or not.
2. More importantly, maybe - WHY do I/we keep hearing the descriptive, "democratic Republic," when it comes to the United States?
No, we are NOT! The United States is a Representative Republic. Learn it, love it, live it!

The Democrats are calling our country a "democratic Republic" to get people used to what they REALLY want our country to be, a Democratic Socialist" country. That's why they want to increase taxes on the middle class and offer those that THEY consider "poor" or "elite", "free" stuff paid for with OUR tax dollars.

I also think that it is rather ironic that we can create and fight "wars" in other countries but, lack the political will nor ability to secure our own border.
