Military spending by the top military spenders, from the Economist.
What if we replace military spending with official development assistance for these same countries?

I think that's a great idea, and I think we should start with Pakistan. Giving billions of dollars to their military has not done us much good, but diverting that money toward very carefully monitored development projects could do a world of good!
