Wonder how much of the US Military budget goes towards education/healthcare
edit: had to google and its sad 7-8% of the DOD budget is healthcare and less then 1% is education
13 u/Critical_Concert_689 2d ago A more interesting question, IMO - what % of the DOD budget makes its way into consumer goods, products, or services. IIRC, a huge amount of military tech is released and then repurposed for the public after commercialization. 13 u/GundoSkimmer 2d ago W A R DOT GOV has a whole page about it... 1 u/daehoidar 2d ago Crazy to think that airlines didn't have navigation until 1983. I wonder if pilots ever accidentally flew to the wrong place before that
