4% of the world's population Economy size to defense spending is probably more a relevant ratio than population. 23% of the world economy, 38% of defense spending. Defense spending is near all time lows. It didn't collapse the country in the 50s when it hit 11.3% of GDP. It didn't collapse the country in the 60s when it hit 8.6%. It didn't collapse the economy in the 80's when it hit 5.7%. We at sitting just over 3% now. If really you are worried that 3.4% going to cause the country to collapse, you can rest easy. https://cdn.factcheck.org/UploadedFiles/DoD-GDP-chart.png |
