We should make sure there is a payment plan for us too, for what we have paid for.

Big difference between paying off loans and being blackmailed into giving up assets.
Also, most of the US funding was spent in the USA.

The vast majority of U.S. Ukraine-related funding does not go directly to Ukraine; it stays in the U.S. economy, subsidizing the production of weapons in at least 31 states and 71 cities.
While Ukraine gets most of the aid in the form of old American weapons pulled from U.S. reserves, it’s American workers at American companies that make new weapons to replenish them.
America’s military-industrial complex also restocks inventories of its NATO allies who similarly help Ukraine.
Not only does this revitalize the communities around large manufacturing plants in mostly Republican states, but it has created so many high-level jobs that some places are struggling to find enough qualified workers.
