Original Note:
The proposed notes reference expense as a % of GDP. The original post is showing % of dollars spent as a whole. See graph 5 on pg 4 (from NATO). US spends ~70% of all dollars spent (NOT as a percentage of GDP!). Original post is factually correct. NNN. https://www.nato.int/nato_static_fl2014/assets/pdf/2022/6/pdf/220627-def-exp-2022-en.pdf
