US President Donald Trump, who is threatening to "take out the entire" Iran if it does not release its chokehold on the Strait of Hormuz, has suggested the United States may be looking to charge a toll on the passage of vessels through the strategic waterways. The US leader was responding to a question about whether he would end the war while Iran was continuing to charge tolls for passage, through which a fifth of the world's oil and liquefied natural gas (LNG) passed in peacetime. "What about us charging tolls? I'd rather do that than let them have them?" he responded.

As it should be. Our navy has to stop protecting the world's shipping lanes for free, especially ones like Hormuz that we barely use ourselves.
If other countries dont like it, their navies can stand in the line of fire against piracy and terrorism.

Probably China too, given how much oil they get from that area.

The world is paying tolls to Muslim pirates for passage. We have been fighting this for centuries.

He should, but only for our NATO allies that stabbed us in the back.

Now Europe has to pay us for their oil and beg us to stay in NATO.

Im not as quick to take this position. I think our Navy protecting global shipping is a big reason the dollar hangs on as the world reserve currency.
