Why not save the Taxpayers a bunch of $$$$, and leave Guam after 75+ years of Post WWII Re-occupation? or 1898, 1941-45 Japan, or 1945-> depending which occupation you use.
Let it be a Nation.

According to buddies who have been thru the area...

The locals residents aren't all that happy the US Military there. Despite about 2/3 of its $$$ revenue being from it.

BTW: The Chinese/Japanese are already about 34+% of the island population.

#6 Inside Joe's "word salad" was often a pithy insight on the view from the East Pacific. Another absent friend missed...
