I give it one (1) BS NATO war they are asked to contribute to, most likely far, far from Europe, they lose a bunch of their new equipment, and then they cut their military spending in half and just milk the system like the rest.

The US needs to shut down all of its overseas bases, bring all the troops home on those bases, and redirect that money to repairing and rebuilding the ones that are state side.

The US needs to build big state of the art bases in the mid west, Deep South and Southwest and have big ass crazy people facilities there to clean up our streets of homeless people. Clean the young ones up and out, sign them up to 6 year contracts, teach them skills and make them productive members of society.

Why should the military be subjected to having to keep watch of the crazy people?
I've always admired Poland. More especially when I learned of their border and immigration policies. Go figure, a government whose primary interests seem to be their own sovereignty and the welfare of their own people.

The US needs to build big state of the art (for medieval times) camps in Alaska, Guam, at former Japanese internment camps, or somewhere hurricane prone and put people there in leg chains to break rocks. Give them 6 year sentences, teach them to shut up and always look down, and make them feel lucky to still be alive.

Poland should be serious. They haven't prepared for conflict since before the first World War. Germany and Russia showed them what happens when you are not up to speed.
Everyone should take the lesson.
The globe has seen 30 years of mass migrations of people looking for basic necessities for life. That kind of event has preceded every world war and large conflict.
Europe is overdue and should the central banking system collapse I can foresee Russia and Germany working in concert again. At first in defense of the pipeline as an excuse for some lebensraum, and then in the Pact of Steel Part Deux. Germany takes the Ukraine for Russia and Russia takes Poland and half the French side with them to kick the foreigners out! Prince Charles now the King of England becomes Lord Chamberlain reincarnate and there is no Churchill and suddenly the World is in 3 parts. China, The Slavic Axis, and the U.S. bristling like a porcupine with technological weapons because the skateboard brigade just doesn't frighten our enemies.

Poland is no Finland or Hungary. Same song second verse.
Another thing, wouldnt suprise me if Poland subtly took the culturally polish half of "ukraine" in the process.
A good portion of the Ukraine was pro Nazi in WWII. I wouldn't be surprised to at all for Germany to take them as a buffer. And yet again, Poland would be caught in a pincer. If Europe is one thing it is predictable. The only reason Poland is whole right now is that there was nothing there worth taking and it wasn't worth provoking NATO. Ukraine is the Mouse that Roared and they like the farcical movie are raking in the reparations and support. To be sure Russia isn't the Soviet Union of the pre Afghanistan period, but they still can kill us all. We've propped up Europe for so long they are weaker than ever.

Warsaw is using this economic strength to transform the country into a formidable fighting force to guard against the Russian wolf at the door. Its willingness to stand against Moscow has also won it allies among many neighbouring countries.
As Germany and France tie themselves in knots over their response to the Ukraine war, Poland's star is on the rise.
The truth is that living standards in places like Warsaw or Wrocław are already comparable to those in Berlin, Paris and London.
In general, living costs are much lower in Poland than in Western Europe. Rents in Wrocław are approximately one fifth of those in London, for example, while a pint of beer in a bar won’t cost you much more than £1.
It is no wonder that many Poles who moved to Britain or Germany to work after Poland joined the EU in 2004 have now returned.
Today's success can largely be attributed to the free market reforms of the legendary post-Communist finance minister Leszek Balcerowicz during the immediate post-1989 period.
As Poland emerged blinking into the light after 40 years of Communism, Balcerowicz was the man with a plan – a new kind of plan – to abolish the planned economy.
The Balcerowicz Plan was a high-risk, accelerated Thatcherite shock to the system, but it worked. The big bang opened up Polish business to the global market and it has flourished. Until the pandemic struck, Poland had boasted the world’s longest period of uninterrupted growth: 28 years.
A sign of Polish resilience is that though the economy shrank by 2.4% in the last three months of 2022, it still grew by 4.9% overall last year.
