World War II is over, and so is the Cold War — we won!
As everyone knows our country has a huge national debt. To save billions of dollars, the United States should close all military bases in Europe.
Begin by closing and selling to the German people all U.S. bases in Germany. Bring all those troops home and station them along the U.S.-Mexican border to stop the illegal immigration problem.
Over time, as the other countries are able to cope with the loss of U.S. dollars, close the remaining bases in Europe.
