of course it has been spending it on dance classes for its troops.

That is so embarrassing to watch. The Euroweenie secret weapon, dancing the Russians into a ROTFLMAO state of vulnerability.

I wonder what a battle hardened Ukrainian soldier would think of that NATO dance troupe?

Officially, 2/3rds of the population in Norway are members of the Church of Norway. It receives govt funding and teaches hedonistic ways.

2% is so Forty Five.

USA spends one trillion from a 7 trillion budget? That is almost 15%.
We are nuts. No wonder we are drowning in debt.

The threshold is not based on a percentage of the budget, it's based on percentage of GDP.

Europe will “increase” defense spending by putting the screws to the people. USAID money will dry up, but America wasn’t getting credit for the largess, anyway. Defense will get the blame, while Elites pocket the increased revenue.

Sorry Norway, the goal is now 5% and you have more work to do.

You are right. I stand corrected.
So, all I know is our GDP is now quite a bit less than our national debt.

Assuming our GDP is about 30 trillion, we are at about 3% for military.
