Assuming the percentage you cited is right, I do think the relative numbers are less important in my assertion than the absolute because with the current tools at hand it's hard to reduce that > 60% part. Only by finding better tools through more research can we, for example, reduce the need to spend that much on health care and pensions. If you consider the absolute amount spent on the battling part of the forces, I would like for battles, if they have to be fought, to shift into cyber space. Just getting rid of money spent on munitions alone would be huge. And more cyber wars means stronger need to build and use more secure IT infrastructure which will benefit everybody.
