The world should be paying us for protection. If they won't pony up willingly we should slap a tariff on every good and service we import equal to the cost of our maintaining safe passage of shipping. An alternative to a tariff is a VAT on imported goods and services. We shouldn’t pay George. The world should be paying us for protection.

If South Korea and Japan want security from Communist North Korea and China; let them pay for it instead of the American tax payer. Why should I pay so they can have a better economy?

I’m an immigrant. Among the things that has always impressed me about the USA and the American People is their generosity. Search all of history and you will not find a more generous empire than the American Empire.

In “The Scary Budget Numbers” Walker points out that we can’t afford guns and butter.

For how long will the USA shoulder the sole burden of keeping the sea lanes safe for trade? How long will the Americans die in the Middle East and now Central Eurasia so that Europe, Japan, India and China have access to oil and gas?

We can eliminate our dual budget and trade deficits immediately merely by imposing a tariff proportionate to the cost we bear of ensuring the safe passage of the goods and materials we import.

In other words, quit asking Americans to go without their butter, stop the slide into insolvency and start forcing the world pay its share for its defense.

The world needs America far more than America needs the rest of the world or its Empire. Our corporations need the Empire. The American People don’t.
