Most of those bases have saved those nations the necessity of building their own armies, navies and air defense forces. We should be getting paid for keeping their nations secure and eliminating the necessity of them paying for it themselves!

You must be a brain-dead millennial - no one else could be this uninformed and totally unaware of history. Those bases have been asked for and various nations have begged for them to remain when the US tried to close the major bases many years back!

Learn the facts before you put up some idiotic and frankly WRONG posting.
