Let's Start Another War...Against Underfunding Education!



A few more U.S. military spending facts:
  • Our military budget is 10x that of China and 6x that of Russia.
  • Total military spending in the world= $1.5 trillion a year
Total U.S. military spending= $700+ billion

The U.S. represents half of global spending on military.
  • The U.S. spends more on our military than does the next 16 highest spending countries---> combined.



Can we also find money to
help our states educate our youth

to match our increasing expectations for achievement
as measured against the rest of the world?
 
[We can call it a "war" if we must!]
