$1,822 Billion USD spent on Military per year (15 Countries)
Where as Countires such as Costa Rica, Iceland, Panama, Grenada Liechetnsrien has virtually no Military
Think what could be done with such monies available Cancer, Poverty, Education, roads, bridges etc
But we chose to develop ways to eliminate each other for the better of ones country, go figure

Only in monetary terms , and thats debatable !!!! If you evaluated your national wealth as Bhutan does by peoples happiness and contentment , then im afraid you are poorer as a nation than a church mouse . :-"
