The things that I rely on my taxes for are way smaller than the things my taxes are spent on. For example, why is my tax money being spent on weapons to kill people halfway across the world when no Americans are being threatened? We could eliminate somewhere around 3-4ths of the military industrial complex right now and not have any issues and get some of that money back. I consider myself a libertarian, not a republican. Big difference is Republicans still want to tell you how you can live.
If you are truly interested in learning why, I could link you some resources.But the long and short of it is, the US is as rich and powerful because one of their big exports is safety for their allies.
You can bet your ass thatany US allies are watching the shit show in congress regarding Ukraine and wondering if they will be left out to dry if push comes to shove, and will hesitate to back US plays in the power competition with China.
