- seibelj 4y agoYes - and as an American I support withdrawing all aid so the Europeans can defend themselves and pay for all of its costs.
- kazinator 4y agoThat's a pretty coarse-grained granularity. How about: "As a Californian, I support withdrawing all aid, so the east coast can defend itself."
- seibelj 4y agoThe USA is a country of states. Europe is a continent of sort-of linked countries. I don’t want to pay for them anymore given how much they pretend armed defense is unnecessary. Good luck to them but I don’t think we should be paying for their defense.
