Helping Ukraine now will be much more cost effective than allowing the Soviet Union to come back - the fall or which Putin considers a “geopolitical catastrophe”. Not to mention helping entire countries falling to slavery is the right thing to do.

Doesn’t change the fact that the endless wars by the U.S. military will cost hundreds of billions of dollars tough. This will be financed with a deficit and via debt. The U.S. has to options:

1) Continue spending hundreds of billions on wars to fund the military industrial complex, or

2) Lose influence all around the world

Combine this with the already huge debt burden and inflation that is much higher then average for the next years, and you will come to the conclusion, that the 60s/70s are very much repeating right now (maybe not exactly, but very similar)
