First of all, we’re not getting jack shit: capitalists in the military-industrial complex are. And second of all, that’s not how US federal taxes work.

Edit: And third of all, Ukraine isn’t getting any of this for free but as lend-leases which their people will be paying off for generations while living under neoliberal austerity measures.
