If an American military base in Germany is unable to pay for all of its operating costs with German funds, it shouldn't be there in the first place. I'm not saying Germany should pay for our planes, but they should pay for our fuel. And reimburse us for the salaries of the men and women who fly them, maintain them, etc.




You realize they want our bases due to the financial benefit TO THEM!!!!

They are not going to PAY FOR US to sit on their soil. Normally renters pay the owner. Until this point, the calculus has been that USA gets net benefit from projecting our power abroad. This is one way we do it.

Yeah no shite it's financially beneficial for them to live under our protection and not have to worry about having a military that's even worth of bringing up in serious conversation.

Step back a moment and realize the huge win of having Mattis rather than whatever bit of excrement the bitch would have picked.
