I think that may be just a little harsh. Sure, the U.S. contributes a lot to NATO. And to non-NATO countries. But the U.S. is the size of all of Europe. The U.S. population is about 44% that of Europe. We are also the largest economic market on Earth.


Comparing the U.S. contribution to global security to that of any other individual country [except maybe China but ... come on], is - IMHO - a little unfair.
