The issue is that dollars do not make weapons via alchemy, Europe spent shittons of money on of artillery shells to Ukraine, just to raise the price of existing shells without making any more new ones.

The raised price of new shells is already causing new ones to be made. It is now a more profitable endeavor.

Look at this free market bullshit.

You think supply responding to price is bullshit?

[–] LeniX@lemmygrad.ml 1 points 10 months ago

There is no supply. If there's not enough capacity to produce the thing - the money's going to end up in those fat MIC pockets. End of story

Mmm yes, especially the manpower. How are you going to buy all that if there's no industrial output to physically create them and the stocks have run dry? By telegraphing fucking aliens across the galaxy?

Fucking libs... Ugh
