Thats true but as I understand it he's still quite popular in Russia. And then there's that state run media.
Serious question-what conflict do you not want to surrender to?
before we go any further, how much more are you personally willing to pay for a wartime tax rate?
If this leads to general war there will be a good deal more to worry about than tax rates. We aren't just dealing with some tinpot raghead dictator with a few clapped out tanks this time
Yes, state run media, something the US simply does not have.
before we go any further, how much more are you personally willing to pay for a wartime tax rate?
a lot of people seem to support a nearly constant state of war, with the US as the world's pro bono police force. before i get into in depth conversations with them about that, i like to find out whether they personally are willing to pay significantly higher tax rates in order to fund it.
Where is that question every time a new lefty tax increase for domestic programs designed to buy votes is implemented?
Im willing to pay what it takes, and you dont have a choice.
Thank the big govt you champion.
Maybe as an officer. It's definitely something of consideration.
i'm willing to pay more in taxes to fund single payer health insurance.
so, what does funding a continuous state of war look like? which marginal rates will go up, and by how much?
No I highly doubt he means Nazis.You mean closet Nazis..
Fun fact, United States best of the best (special operations), learned everything from British SAS. US special operation will never be better then them.
So what do you propose be done other than complaining about Obama?

Putin's not going to like this much.
Everyone will have to pay something, comrade. Well those of us who actually do pay taxes.
so you support raising taxes to fund the war?
I support fighting the war and paying our debts.
"If fighting the war and paying our debts" had to come with a incredibly drastic tax increase, would you support that?
Elaborate on "best of the best."
Delta force? SEALS (who I thought get trained in Israel/with Israelis...)? Rangers?
Spec ops are a small facet of the larger picture. Even if the SAS were better, the British military is vastly inferior to that of the USA's military.
I support fighting the war and paying our debts.
what does that look like by income tax bracket? also, which wars, and for how long? some of these wars would require occupying and rebuilding nations for decades if not for generations. would you support a long term significantly increased wartime tax rate?
In a war that had to be fought yes. And with the elimination of liberal wealth redistribution schemes, it would be much cheaper.
No I highly doubt he means Nazis.
And to say that because 1 of our SOF elements was based in a Brittish design means that we can never be better than them is just pretty dumb. And they while we did learn from them originally that was a long time ago and not really relevant to how things are done now.
Look at it this way.
Not only does our SOF have a bigger budget which leads to better equipment and training funds, we also have a much bigger military pool to pull from allowing us to be more selective. We have also had been at war non-stop since 2001 gaining experience and validating and modifying tactics. That is a almost impossible advantage to beat.
Terrible idea.
The Ukranian conflict is a direct result of NATO thinking that Russia couldn't do anything about Ukraine wanting to join the West. Russia wants, and will fight hard, to keep buffer states between her and the West. It's entirely reasonable policy on her part.
For actual enlightenment on this, you may want to read below...from my favorite foreign affairs expert (who nailed the Iraq war, incidentally) John Mearscheimer. Not liberal or conservative- but definitely an anti neo-con.
