Just look at all the handouts going to Ukrainian soldiers right now. What silly economic dead weight!

The appropriated funds were only 4% of the defense budget, a lot of which still hasn't been handed out, and half of the handouts weren't even weapons and other military supplies. You could fund 10 Ukrainian wars at the same level and still have an extra 150% idle capacity.
