"Fighting rages in east Ukraine, West eyes more sanctions on Russia"
Here's a novel idea... Lets drill for our own oil, tap what's in of our strategic our reserve, instead of Biden selling it to other countries, if we need to cover any shortages until we can ramp production up.
It's really quite simple, we are financing the Russian's attempted take over a sovereign country. It's time to end the insanity. And the Ukrainian people would, should, and will be loyal allies of the United States for many decades, at the very least, to come. Who knows, they might just end up joining NATO to help keep that megalomaniac in his place until his cancer takes him out for eternity.
And don't overlook that oil industry workers would be back to work, more individual taxes would flow into the US Treasury, we would borrow less from China and stop them from profiting on the interest income our treasury bills provide them. (The real truth is we never actually pay them off. We just issue more when the old ones become due and payable. It's akin to digging the hole deeper to get out of the hole.)
Life gets so much simpler when you apply a little common sense.
