I am glad to hear you can recognize that the US is broken. Of course it is much more than just the US at this point, but I digress

I am not really concerned about Ukraine defending itself, but I am concerned about Russia attacking what is equivalent of their own brothers and sisters. Yes, I was totally seeing where you land on wars of opportunity/agression and I am pleasantly surprised. Thanks for your candor.

I am not sure I agree with the concept of taxes, but obviously a government needs to operate with some monetary injections. I think if you have a strong social contract and everyone pays an amount that is equitable it could work out fine. I also believe there are other ways for the government to fund itself.

I am not sure I am ready to take up arms to kill my fellow man. Why are they invading. Would you expect me to fight a European army if I was in the US and they were invading to stop US war crimes? I do not owe allegiance to a concept. I would be much more likely to try and defend a person as opposed to a government.
