Sitting and reading about the war that is going on between Russia and Ukraine, and seeing all the destruction in the cities and countryside, has brought a question to my mind. When this ends, who is going to pay for the cleanup and rebuilding? My guess is the politicians here in the U.S. will call for billions of tax dollars to be sent to Ukraine to rebuild and to cover the cost, and there will be more tax increases leveled against the American people.

The politicians will state that the U.S. must come up with a plan to rebuild what the Russians destroyed.

I as one American believe the politicians will use this to enrich themselves and their European cohorts at the expense of the working men and women here in the USA. After the price increases of gas and all other commodities the Biden administration has given the working men and women, this will be the next stab in the back.
