Let's not get into who should go and who should not. It is pointless. US has been deploying troops worldwide since decades, they can easily deploy some in Ukraine but they don’t want to.

Yes, when a major economy crashes, it drags the sentiment down by a lot. Everything panic sells.
Europe is dependent on US for its economy in some ways, so a crash in US economy dents the Euro too.
On top of that, some major European countries are struggling right now, like Germany. Greece is also in a bad shape.
Even then, he had a month at the least.
I would be extremely okay with having this in my life
That's my whole point, only money has been given. US troops should have been deployed to Ukraine.
No, but they did promise protection. So far, there has been no protection given, only money.
Problem with talking about USA in this conflict is everytime immediately assumes that anyone accusing USA of anything is automatically supporting Russia.
Congratulations nonetheless. Everyone fucks up the first time. They will get it the next time.
I agree with you on this but with some nuance. This thinking is correct and should be used on individual level. However, time has shown us that most humans are stupid and will resort to herd mentality. So, the pride quickly turns into nationalism.
We are talking about the war/defence industry which is a much newer thing when countries started selling weapons and such to other countries on a large scale and during their own non-war times, like the last 50 years of American history. If countries sold weapons to each other during WW2, it was because they were involved in the war themselves. Nowadays, it is just selling weapons and watching others burn each other down.
Predictions have been going on since forever about so many things. Doesn't make it any truer. China is going to annex Taiwan, Russia is going to attack Europe, Iran is weeks away from nukes. Funnily, there are no predictions about USA doing stuff.

You are missing the point. I am saying let's not talk about which individual US persons should go to fight.
