Make 'em sign a treaty giving us the rights to the bases for 100 years. Getting tired of our fair weather friends. We spend hundreds of billions of dollars, then they kick us out. In this case, they want us back to offset a threat from China. Fine. Make 'em pay.

Couldn’t have said it better myself. They should pay us for protecting them. What natural resources do they have besides tilapia? Oh, that’s right.. The bar girls are pretty hot.

I thought we pulled out of Clark because Mt. Pinatubo erupted and destroyed the place.

The citizens of Olangapo have to be doing cartwheels of joy hearing this news. Some not, maybe, but most.

Those islands are ran by and largely owned by a relatively small number of elite ruling famililes . . . more or less like the rest of the planet . . .
Anyway . . . make them pay, if you wish.
Just be careful not to trouble the wonderful Filipino people who have plenty of struggles all on their own, already.

these bases are already used for civilian purposes, so we can't "give them back".
Clark Freeport Zone is now a civilian airport, a telecom center and has an industrial park. Come over for our "balloon" festival, or stay there at a hotel when you come for an ecovacation to Mt. Pinatubo
I'm less familiar with Subic, but they have a ship building business up there, and lots of folks drive up there from Manila to shop for bargains, since it is a "free port" i.e. duty free.

I seem to remember that the Filipinos kicked us out and then immediately regretted it after their economy collapsed without any American money fueling it.

Just another LIE by the minor Zero. Remember his promise to cut the military and remove them from foreign bases, now he wants to reopen more of them. What a loser and moron.
