Best Answer

Any country's military is paid for by its gross national product, or GNP. A military structure exists primarily to fight and contributes little if any weath to the GNP, but there may be exceptions to this rule. The US Army Corps of Engineers, for example, may possibly be counted as part of the US labor force because they have been involved with civilian projects which might contribute to the GNP.
