NPP In Action
"NPP is an integral part of this summer's series of Town Hall meetings entitled 'Agenda for a Shared Prosperity' we are sponsoring around the state. It is especially significant to have cost of war figures for each Congressional District as citizens can see how their Representative's votes impact their own locale."
- Gary Zuckett, Exc. Dir.

World Military Spending, 2007World military spending in 2007 reached $1.214 trillion with the U.S. accounting for almost half. NATO allies make up another 23% of spending, while Japan, S. Korea and Australia make up another 7% (included in the rest of the world slice). While accurate data for 2007 is not available for some of the countries labeled as the 'axis of evil' by the administration, it is likely that these countries - Cuba, Iran, Libya, N. Korea, Sudan and Syria make up only around 1% of world military spending.
