The US isn't a Democracy. It's a Capitalist Oligarchy. You know. Like Russia. (lemmy.world)

he raised taxes on oil companies, he doesn’t overpay for weapons, and stopped diesel exports for consumer benefit.

He had to do all this to fight the war. It wasn't out of some ideological commitment, but the simple material necessities of running an economy during wartime when you don't have the infinite money check of a global reserve currency.

US sees weapon and oil profits, and cheap corrupt privatization of Ukraine, as purpose of war is the difference. That the demented group think around here portrays Russia as the imperialist aggressor in this war, and under autarchy, is also belied by very high Russian military signing bonuses/pay.
