Do you think countries should spend money in building arms and ammunitions or invest in the development of infrastructure? comment.

The greatest priority in every State is security. As a matter of fact, a nation without a powerful military can be an attractive target for terrorists.  However, countries present different realities and what may seem the best investiment for one country might not be the right alternative for another. It all depends on the situation and the level of development of each nation-state. If we take into consideration that the money ($11 billion) the U.S spent in Iraq, that was labeled as "wasted" later on, could have paid over 220,000 teachers' salaries, the answer to this question becomes very obvious. In my opinion, having a balance between both investments is vital. But, if I had to choose, I'd choose to invest in infrastructure because they're essential to a country's economy and prosperity; a country that is economically developed and prosper will manage its military successfully.
