It's all financed with debt, and debt is all that backs our currency. It's hard to buy oil and other resources with debt money when nations have a choice to accept money that isn't debased. BRICS is increasingly providing that choice. The end result is going to be austerity, which is how it always goes for debtor nations.
So what. It doesn’t negate that disaster money is separate from money sent to foreign nations and/or spent on immigration...
The fact that they're separate items in the budget has nothing to do with what sally was getting at. It all gets added to the national debt, which is already well past the point of ever being resolved without going into default.
