the U.S. is tired of supporting you
Nonsense. There are three reasons why the US is spending ridiculous amounts of money for their military presence around the world:
- Worldwide influence; keeping the status as a superpower under all circumstances. Being boss is expensive.
- Keep wars abroad instead of fighting them at home
- Ensure that the US$ stays the reserve currency of the world. Without that status, the U.S. would be bankrupt tomorrow.
Bark all you want, but you know it's true.
