Since the proxy war in Ukraine began, the Biden administration and Congress have directed more than $100 billion in assistance to their proxy forces fighting Russia in Ukraine. MintPress Senior Staff Writer Alan MacLeod asks why all of that money is going to Ukraine while Europe and the United States neglect their own populations.

As of 2022, there were over half a million homeless people in the United States.

In 2021, 95.4 million people in the EU were at risk of poverty or social exclusion; this was equivalent to 21.7 % of the EU population.

“Every day, I’m standing outside trying to sing my way in: We are hungry, please let us in We are hungry, please let us in. After about a week that song is gonna change to: We hungry, we need some food…”

    How the US can go on shouting about upholding freedom and democracy when it is so obviously neglecting its own country and people, is quite staggeringly hypocritical. It can’t see the irony and absurdity of its claims, even though it must have been pointed out to it multiple times.

    Imagine what $100 billion could do for ANY country, even one as large as the USA. It would transform it drastically.

    If anyone needed further evidence of the utter failure of western democracy to look after country and people, this must be it. Even the west’s arch enemies Russian and China treat their people far better, and invest in their own countries.

    The $1.1 billion delivered by Janet Yellen (who is really Claude Rains, [Casablanca], aging and transformed) will go in part to funding Ukraine’s Universal Health Care system. Gee, I wish my country could afford it.
