All I know, is that any whole number is probably more that what is currently spent, and any amount would make a significant difference.

at least 3 percent

… I dunno, keep pouring and I’ll say when

I just wish no corruption

In my country there’s a social movement asking for at least 2%…

Lets say 10 people in an economy (maybe in reality this could be 1 person = 10 million person-years, so a country with 100 million working ppl):

• 5 on consumer goods
• 3 on social services
• 1 on research & development
• 1 on defense

A peripheral economies must push the bar and get a higher percentage. But as the economy grows, the percentage can go down a little, as the absolute value is already big. But the real question is “What R&D?”. A low budget on public health is preferable to a high on mining industry for a poor country.

I am not an economist or whatever how should I know.
