The ROI on stopping Russian expansion and crippling their military has got to be insane.

Especially considering the human cost of blood sweat and tears is "externalized"

So - were helping knock out China’s last regional threat and renewing an enemy that could have been turned into an ally two decades ago?

That seems like a terrible investment.

That's a problem but it's Russia's problem, not ours. For the US and Europe, every month of the campaign in Ukraine, every month of utilizing Russian equipment and personnel, buys at least a year of peace for the whole Europe. At the end of this war Russia will be at bay for another 50-100 years. That's awesome!
