Original Note:
Pressed on the accuracy or origin of the claimed costs, the poster could not provide e.g. an accounting breakdown but instead resorted to broad generalism without substance to the matter. Both claims on "lockdown" and Ukraine costs are misleading and/or factually wrong. https://twitter.com/MLiamMcCollum/status/1670489431256764416 https://healthpolicy.usc.edu/article/covid-19s-total-cost-to-the-economy-in-us-will-reach-14-trillion-by-end-of-2023-new-research/ https://www.cfr.org/article/how-much-aid-has-us-sent-ukraine-here-are-six-charts
