Not sure if you noticed, but the mighty Russia hasn't been able to run over poor Ukraine... I'd say they're funding Ukraine just fine...
It's just that they want Russia want to be in a constant war, more than they want Russia to lose and be able to rebuild again.
Also, the American capitalism has funded Ukraine the same way too... and couldn't win in Iran with the Europeans.

Plenty of Americans living in the UK and Europe would disagree with you. Loads of videos on YouTube telling you the difference between the lies they were brought up with and their lived experience. These are Americans who still love their country, but, like the rest of us, realise just because you were born somewhere doesn't mean it's the best ever and has no faults.

@CrazyMusicLover It's almost like people with some sort of education realize how terrible it is here.

Nationally, you generally need an annual household income between $198,000 and $387,000 to be in the top 10% of earners, which is the standard baseline for being considered "rich." Earning the top 1% income requires more than $731,490 annually, though "wealthy" is often better measured by a net worth of $2 million to $2.3 million.
Geographic Differences
Where you live dramatically shifts these thresholds due to local costs of living. To be in the top 10% (and considered rich), you need a much higher income in some states:District of Columbia: $635,000Massachusetts: $387,000California: $311,000
Lower Cost States (e.g., West Virginia, Mississippi): $198,000 to $201,000Income vs. Net Worth
Financial advisors and economists emphasize that income dictates your cash flow and lifestyle, while net worth (total assets minus debts) is the true measure of accumulated wealth.Affluent/Top 10% Net Worth: Requires a household net worth of roughly $1.8 million nationwide.
Americans' Definition of Wealth: According to surveys, the average American considers a net worth of $2.3 million to be the minimum threshold for being "wealthy".

@InterdimensionalSideEye I'm not sure who they are in Europe, but in the USA they are MAGA members.
