What does Israel spend most of its money on?

Answer 1

According to the final figures released by the Knesset's Finance Committee, the Health Ministry budget was NIS 33 billion ($8.6 billion) for 2017 and NIS 35 billion ($9.1 billion) in 2018, with another NIS 10 billion ($2.6 billion) a year for public hospitals; the Education Ministry budget was set at NIS 57 billion ($14 billion) for 2017 and NIS 59.4 billion ($15.4 billion) for 2018; the defense budget was NIS 70 billion ($18.2 billion) for each year, while state-funded religious services received NIS 640-660 million ($167 million-$172 million). The Transportation Ministry gets a NIS 19 billion ($4.9 billion) budget in 2017, and NIS 19.5 billion ($5 billion) in 2018. These allocations were designed to cover construction on two new light rail lines in Tel Aviv.
