Reply to comment by IndeterminateYogurt in [OC] Around 30% of countries spend more than 2% of GDP on their military by IndeterminateYogurt
The US spends more than $4500 per capita on military. Your chart looks like the US spends about $1000 per capita. What number did you use for US military spending for this chart?

It should still be noticeably higher because each measure is only 10 times the last. Not having horizontal lines makes it hard to see as well.
This data is interesting, but it is not beautiful.

In 2020 it was $2,187 per capita on the military, but they spent $11,945 per capita on healthcare.
As far as % of GDP, in 2020 it was 3.7% on military and 16.8% on healthcare.
