"I can not see why we are still in Korea, they don’t won’t us there, don’t need us there …"

Our economy is heavily dependent on South Korea for things like computer memory chips. They need us, and we need them.

It is not strategically wise to be dependent on any foreign country in an unstable region of the world for any vital commodity although sometimes you have no choice.

We cannot realistically change the fact that the Persian Gulf happens to contain 70% of the World's known oil reserves but we can certainly do something about the fact that we are not producing our own computer chips.
