How military spending in the United States has been used by the US Government.

In 2014, the US Government reportedly spent $500 billion dollars a year on military defense. US Government spends nearly 75% of US tax dollars on military spending when it relates to our military defense. In 2015, the US Government reportedly spent $750 billion dollars  a year on military defense. That’s double the spending from $500 billion dollars a year! In 2016, the US Government reportedly spent $900 billion dollars a year on military defense.The number now for military spending is in the range of $1 trillion dollars to $2 trillion dollars!


The US Government has permitted the US Navy and US Army to purchase hybrid aviation battleships, fighter planes, fighter jets, nuclear weapons, aircraft carriers, and of course, missiles. Most of US tax dollars are spent on military weapons as stated before. These military weapons are often nuclear weapons of mass destruction which are deadly and quite lethal!

Much of these weapons are weapons that the US Government wants to keep confidential and hidden from American citizens along with the rest of the world. There are many factors of reasons why the US Government wants to keep these military weapons confidential. The "Big Ship, Big Guns" concept is currently the battleship centric strategy the US Government is using. This is where US government military spending is going.

As of 2016 in terms of military spending in the United States, the military budget for the fiscal year/period of 2014-2016 is estimated to be approximately around $750 billion (USD) ($750,000,000,000.00) a year! The number now for military spending is in the range of $1 trillion dollars to $2 trillion dollars! The United States spends more in military spending than any other country in the world. Even more than China, Russia, Pakistan, and Germany.
