Would It Be Wise -- in the Interests of Not Letting Democracy Die -- for Congress to Declare War...

and approve spending these HUGE amounts of funds that will affect our futures here at home for decades to come, only after our representatives have solicited the input of the American people in each of the fifty states to gauge support for further military escalation?

I think that is why our Founders put Congress in charge of declaring wars, even if that has not been the precedent in this country in a long time.  

If you don't have the support of the American people to "take out Putin" and collapse Russia under military might, maybe we should not be throwing in the $33 billion/trillion for starters?  

Let our Congressional representatives stop playing games, and do their jobs:  1) explain to the American people the goals of this war, 2) how the money will be spent and tracked (because if ever a region is known for skimming from the top and taking their cut for "their own", it is Eastern Europe), and 3) what bang we can expect from the now-foreign fighters for our big bucks, before voting as we direct them to, whether to war on, or to push for a negotiated solution.

If they can't convince us of Joe's people's plan, then we should not be throwing in, because once in, haven't we learned how hard it will be to "get out" and abandon the people we have promised to save?
