If US citizens and US businesses choose to operate there, they should be footing the entire bill for their own private protection services. Just say “no” to Socialist military spending.
I adore socialist spending. Just on real shit that matters like housing and food and medicine. Not threatening brown countries on the other side of the planet because they don’t bend the knee to The Empire.
Yes, let’s just grind the entire worldwide economy to a halt. Smart idea, genius. You do realize, don’t you, that more than one country ALSO does international trade in the waters between Europe and Asia, right? The US has the most to lose, so they foot the bill. But the rest of the world benefits from the US military presence in pirate-filled waters.
Also, US citizens and US businesses pay taxes (well, some of the do), which pays for the US military… so in reality they ARE footing the bill for their own protection services. If you want them to pay 100% of the bill, then every single thing you buy in every single country will suddenly triple in price. I’m sure you’d love that. Jesus, you’re as good at managing the economy as Trump.
