When you see a news story about one kajillion dollars in aid sent to Ukraine, it isn't Joe Brandon writing a check drawn off an account named "money for poor people in Western North Carolina". Cash transfers to Ukraine are minimal and most of the dollar figure is just poo that was sitting around in storage costing millions of dollars in upkeep. Most of the rest is, as jay said, federal handouts to defense contractors in the good 'ol US of A. Something as American as apple pie.
By the way, if you think you're upset about gas prices now, just wait til Putin captures a warm water port. He who shall not be named can talk all the poo he wants about all the drilling he's going to do and how gas is going to be ten cents a gallon or whatever, but crude is a globally traded commodity and that will never happen.
