Well, mate, if you read our media, we were told a few years back that we have to pay half the cost of all things US military on our soil. Did you know that? Then in March last year Trump decided on a policy he calls "Cost plus 50", whereby all US allies will pay 150% of the cost of US military on their soil. Do you find "The Times" credible? Here is what that says : https://time.com/5548013/trump-allies-pay-cost-plus-50-troops/ .Seeing our govt does everything the Yanks want us to do.... and always have, except for Whitlam, I'd say we've been paying for a while. I think I originally read about it in the New York Times, but you have to pay to access that. So, have a read, mate.
