Global Military Expenditure

One of the main global issues is the military expenditure. Every year that goes by governments are expending more and more money on military and weapons. A high amount of the world's money is being invested in this. This money could be used for other issues such as ending poorness or at least a good amount of it. The USA spends about the half of all the global expenditure on military.

This is an issue because this many could be used for other beneficial causes. This could only lead to other greater issues such as a world war, causing more damage than usual. The year with the highest expenditure was 2012. This could be a risk, it is not safe at all. There should be a shortage to the world military expenditure.

This link shows a list of the worlds 6 greatest military investors.
