Resolutions on U.S. military bases overseas

by Lucy

WHEREAS, the official number of U.S. military bases overseas is 865. It is the largest one in the world; and

WHEREAS, the military bases overseas cost a lot and may affect the American economy to some degree. U.S. was ranked NO.1 in military expenditure in the world with 650 billion dollars in 2008; and

WHEREAS, the number of injured and dead soldiers is large; and

WHEREAS, it will waste huge amount of natural resources for unnecessary uses, and have bad effect on environment; and

WHEREAS, criminous U.S. military soldiers will not be punished by the local police, instead they will be sent back to America. So the number will enlarge; and

WHEREAS, it will influence the host countries’ authorities and interfere the politics.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE TO RESOLVED, cut the expenditure in U.S. military cost; cut down the number of soldiers for military bases overseas;   let more United Union armies help the poor countries  that need  help.
