Yeah, don't let mass govt corruption, unauditable billions of dollars in support, and the lives of your sons and daughters get in the way of the big picture that stopping Russia from taking over a country no one could find on a map a year ago is the most important issue in America today.

The fact that Americans are, in popular culture, famous for being unable to find places on the map, doesn't mean that it's safe to ignore what happens in such places.
Also, I didn't say it was the most important issue in America today. I'm sure America can multi task.
And the only sons and daughters dying are those of the Ukrainain and Russian victims of Putin.
Point is, even if you don't give a shit about what happens in Ukraine, failing to act will lead to huge costs for you, a US taxpayer, later. If you want to minimise costs, and even if that is the ONLY reason, you should support Ukraine.
... let's save money in the future by giving a notoriously corrupt government billions in untraceable taxpayer money for a war in which we refuse to negotiate for a peaceable resolution.
Russia invaded. What kind of peaceable solution do you think exists?
It's as if the USA invaded Mexico and the world wondered why Mexico didn't negotiate a peace, while US troops were on it's territory.
