It will be interesting to see what actually happens in any case.
Whatever will the world do if America stops paying for everyone else's military?

Perhaps we can petition Obama on behalf of Eisensapper and see if we can get him a raise.

What militaries does the US fund, besides the IDF?

I'll get a travel mug, that's good enough for me.

I was referring to the idea that Europe and much of the modern world doesn't have to bother building a powerful military because Big Brother USA will step in to help if evil rises again. A lot of countries get pretty good money from the US stationing troops at military bases around the world.

When the "evil" comes I'm sure we will manage even if you decide to sit out.
Thanks though.

So, you're saying that the US stations troops in South Korea because the Koreans are too cheap to spend on defence? Or that's why they have almost 50,000 troops in Japan.
Come on, the US has troops stationed around the world because of its national interests, not those of the host nations. Troops in Europe were placed there to contain the USSR, and have been steadily reduced. Troops in Asia are thereto contain the North Koreans and the Chinese, not because the US feels generous. If the Philippines hadn't kicked them out, I guarantee that they'd still have a base st Subic Bay too.
And while no single European nation has troops that can match the US, it shouldn't come as a surprise, given that their economies, populations and geographic sizes are all quite a bit smaller too. Howver, combined, they have similar numbers in all those areas, including the military.
