Also, you forgot to calculate the American military budget since 1991. I told you not to forget, it was a really good idea for a comparison.
Or take how much was given to South Vietnam (in the desperate hope that "Asian boys will fight without the need for the American boys" if you just fund them enough, and I don't even want how much the Americans paid for their own involvement there), and adjust for inflation.
You see, South Vietnam was in the top five greatest military powers (conventional) in the world. They just didn't actually fight.
They also sponsored Cambodia and Laos (and Thailand, and South Korea including SK's involvement in Vietnam, and more).

But I mean, just only South Vietnam.
