    With billions of dollars, you can buy lots of weapons, ammunition, and manpower.

      The issue is that dollars do not make weapons via alchemy, Europe spent shittons of money on of artillery shells to Ukraine, just to raise the price of existing shells without making any more new ones.

      Mmm yes, especially the manpower. How are you going to buy all that if there’s no industrial output to physically create them and the stocks have run dry? By telegraphing fucking aliens across the galaxy?

      Fucking libs… Ugh
