Believe it or not, relative to the US economy the 66.9 billion is not much. But it’s not actually about the money, a lot of that already was spent a long time ago on military hardware so the expense was already made. It’s about whether you let Ukraine use these tools or decomission them inside the US, because that’s whats happening with a lot of kit like Bradleys or Atacms. There’s zero financial reason to not give those (except maybe for transportation cost).
