[QUOTE="wkmac, post: 479708, member: 2189"] From GlobalSecurity.org, the listing by country of annual world wide military expenditures [URL="http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/world/spending.htm"][COLOR=red]http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/world/spending.htm[/COLOR][/URL] Here's the United States according to this list and then some other nation players that we might find of interest. United States $623billion FY08 budget China $65billion 2004 Russia $50billion CIA & SIPRI provide no estimates Canada $9.8billion 2003 North Korea $5billion FY02 Iran $4.3billion 2003 est. Venezuela $1.6billion 2005 est. Don't quote me but I think these numbers are budgeted items only and in the case of the United states, don't include special allocations and additions like the extra funding expenditures passed annually for Iraq, Afghanistan and other aspects of the global war on terror.
