From one perspective, but for EU workers, if we spend that money here, it creates jobs here.

I'm seeing defence startups get funded left and right, in some professions, they are the only ones hiring right now.

Could we spend that money better? Maybe. But it's still marginally better to spend my taxes this way, and also the Russians have threatened to nuke my home twice, so it gives me some peace of mind that we have some more deterrence.
