All over the globe

We now have more than 1,000 military bases outside of the U.S.A.  Some are relatively small, housing a few hundred troops.  Others are huge, such as the latest in Italy.  It includes a brigade headquarters, two sets of barracks, a natural-gas-powered energy plant, a hospital, two schools, a fitness center, dining facilities, and a mini-mall.  The total cost of construction and supplying this one base should amount to a half billion U.S. dollars.  When you add in the costs of all our overseas bases, you're talking about $200 billion per year.

Does the above give you any ideas for lowering the deficit?
