Quid Pro Quo!!

Why is it that numerous countries worldwide seem quite happy to allow foreign controllers in to manage traffic in their sovereign airspace, but the US does not? What is so different about the US that requires ATC to be done only by US citizens (who have security clearance by default)?

I know this has been raised before, but I haven't heard a plausible answer yet.
