Way too much money in military contracts to just give that shit up to help people.
Two options: spend billions on military contracts to go blow up people in other countries.
Spend billions helping people with healthcare.

The answer can be found not by looking at who gets military aid dollars from the US, but on which company’s products they spend it.
Hint: the money comes back into the pockets of companies like Raytheon, Boeing, Lockheed Martin, General Dynamics.
