Between 2017 and 2018, the US military budget increased by 10%. That's $54 billion, which is approximately the same as the total budget for education ($59 billion)
Replying to @fchollet
Not expressing any opinion on the merits of the respective budgets, but that number ($59B) is small just because of where the spending happens. Including state budgets, total government spending on education is >$700B/year. https://nces.ed.gov/fastfacts/display.asp?id=66 …
