@sunflowerlover5640 you think only you are paying? You poor Muppet!
1. Europe spends 7 billions per month, every month, to house, feed, healthcare, education for Ukrainian refugees
To that add the military aid and financial aid to keep the Ukrainian economy that's still alive going.
So stop crying ... Your personal amount is about 12 dollars per month, a netflix subscription, that's it, that's what this cost you while the Ukrainians are losing their families, their children, their brothers and sisters.
2. If Ukraine fails to tackle Poo-tin your allies in Eastern Europe are next and then USA would have to protect it's allies (or dump them like they dumped the Kurdish) according to Article 5 of NATO Treaty. This would mean direct conflict between your country and Russia, deployment of NATO troops that's way more expensive than your 12 dollars monthly. That would mean USA would "pay" not just in money but in lives of its citizens.
2. USA got involved in so many dirty wars, this is the moment you should be grateful for the chance to clean your image of warmongers because this is clearcut a just war. Ukraine is trying to protect it's country and it's people against an aggressor that starved and killed them through the centuries. Your governments did so many ugly things on this planet... Embrace your chance to wash some of your sins, god know you have sooooooo many
3. Helping Ukraine will keep the global food supply chain safer, millions won't die of starvation in the global south... You must be a republican, you don't care, but you should care because famine in the global south would start mass migrations that would inevitably end up to your border and my European border too

@vivianspinarski4846
The term Holodomor (death by hunger, in Ukrainian) refers to the starvation of millions of Ukrainians in 1932–33 as a result of Soviet policies. The Holodomor can be seen as the culmination of an assault by the Communist Party and Soviet state on the Ukrainian peasantry, who resisted Soviet policies. This assault occurred in the context of a campaign of intimidation and arrests of Ukrainian intellectuals, writers, artists, religious leaders, and political cadres, who were seen as a threat to Soviet ideological and state-building aspirations.
Between 1917 and 1921, Ukraine briefly became an independent country and fought to retain its independence before succumbing to the Red Army and being incorporated into the Soviet Union. In the 1920s, Soviet central authorities, seeking the support of the populace, allowed for some cultural autonomy through the policy known as “indigenization.”
By the end of the 1920s, Soviet leader Joseph Stalin decided to curtail Ukraine’s cultural autonomy, launching the intimidation, arrest, imprisonment and execution of thousands of Ukrainian intellectuals, church leaders, as well as Communist Party functionaries who had supported Ukraine’s distinctiveness.
At the same time, Stalin ordered the collectivization of agriculture. The majority of Ukrainians, who were small-scale or subsistence farmers, resisted. The state confiscated the property of the independent farmers and forced them to work on government collective farms. The more prosperous farmers (owning a few head of livestock, for example) and those who resisted collectivization were branded kulaks (rich peasants) and declared enemies of the state who deserved to be eliminated as a class. Thousands were thrown out of their homes and deported.
In 1932, the Communist Party set impossibly high quotas for the amount of grain Ukrainian villages were required to contribute to the Soviet state. When the villages were not able to meet the quotas, authorities intensified the requisition campaign, confiscating even the seed set aside for planting and levying fines in meat and potatoes for failure to fulfill the quotas. Special teams were sent to search homes and even seized other foodstuffs. Starving farmers attempted to leave their villages in search of food, but Soviet authorities issued a decree forbidding Ukraine’s peasants from leaving the country. As a result, many thousands of farmers who had managed to leave their villages were apprehended and sent back, virtually a death sentence. A law was introduced that made the theft of even a few stalks of grain an act of sabotage punishable by execution. In some cases, soldiers were posted in watchtowers to prevent people from taking any of the harvest. Although informed of the dire conditions in Ukraine, central authorities ordered local officials to extract even more from the villages. Millions starved as the USSR sold crops from Ukraine abroad.
The USSR vigorously denied that the Holodomor had occurred. Since the collapse of the Soviet Union, the Communist Party, secret police, and government archives that have become accessible to researchers support the conclusion that the famine was caused by Soviet state policies and was indeed intentionally intensified by Soviet authorities.

@frankpaya690 I'm not even American and it seems I know better than you...did you took your medication today?
117th Congress (2021–2023)
Majority Party: Democrats (48 seats)
Minority Party: Republicans (50 seats)
Other Parties: 2 Independents (both caucus with the Democrats)
Total Seats: 100
Note: From January 3, 2021, to January 20, 2021, party division stood at 51 Republicans, 46 Democrats, 2 Independents (who caucused with the Democrats), and 1 vacancy. Both Senate seats in Georgia were up for election in 2020—the Class 2 seat held by Senator David Perdue, and the Class 3 seat held by appointed senator Kelly Loeffler (special election). No candidate in either race won a majority (50%+) as required by Georgia State law, forcing run-off elections for both seats held on January 5, 2021. Senator Perdue's term expired on January 3, 2021, resulting in a vacancy until the winner of the run-off election was sworn in. Democrats Jon Ossoff and Raphael Warnock defeated Perdue and Loeffler, respectively, in the run-off elections and were sworn in on January 20, bringing the party division to 50 Republicans, 48 Democrats, and 2 Independents (who caucus with the Democrats). Democrats hold the majority due to the tie-breaking vote of Vice President Kamala Harris.

@frankpaya690 I might need to study more to improve my English, after all is just my third language and sometimes I fail to speak and write it perfectly.
'Took' is the past tense, whereas 'taken' is the past participle. Generally, the simple past (took) is used to make a general statement/single events about the past, while the past participle (taken)... Maybe my English teacher was wrong too, I'll give her a call.
Anyway
