Pete Ashdown on Foreign Policy

Democratic challenger


Make foreigners pay for US military bases that defend them

Countries who currently depend on U.S. military bases for protection should pay for that service where appropriate. The reason our military budget is so large is that other countries are using on our “free” protections while they expand their own economies beyond ours.
