[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The war is costing us $1B per day. They got $45B from us last year. I got homless people sleeping in their cars at shopping centers in my neighborhood, 70yr olds working at Walmart, millions w/o health insurance. We could have had free Universal Healthcare like most developed countries by now. Common man. Really frustrating. [/quote] For to put that amount of money into some context. In 2024 the U.S. sent to Israel $17,900,000,000. That could instead fund one of the following: 11,222,570 Households with one month's free rent 37,664,387 Families with one month's free groceries 6,228,253 Children's free or low-cost healthcare for one year 195,440 Elementary school teachers' salaries for one year 50,960,854 Households with solar electricity produced for a year 473,707 Students with their loan debt.
