do they each have military bases in the US they fund?although other stats say the US spends only 400 billion a yr !!! even if that is true thats nearly half a trillion bucks a yr !!! so if thats true why the hell is it wrong do demand better trade agreements and lower tariffs on our goods sold in the same countries we spend 100s of billions to protect ?? shouldnt we at least get a fair deal ??
Funding NATO
The US pays 22% of the costs of NATO, more than any other country, but possibly because it's 3 times larger than any other country.
Germany pays 14%, but has 80 million people compared to 325 million.
France and the UK pay half what the US pays, but have populations about 1/5th the size of the US.
So, it's bullshit that the US pays more than other countries.
The US pays a lot of money towards its own military. But that's because the US is a warmonger country. NATO is defensive, most of the US military is offensive.
