Richard is the most qualified person to speak on this topic.

We do the same thing with fighter jets. We build over priced, maintenance heavy fighters that never get used to their full ability. Id like to see what we have spent on those lately. Ike was right. The military industrial complex isnt the right answer to maintaining the economy.

Everyone is way too worried about nuclear proliferation. I believe in focusing on the positive side of the human spirit! We absolutely should believe that every government on this earth, from our time and over the entire future of all human governance, shall refrain from detonating a nuclear weapon in anger! And this they shall never do...FOREVER!

8k nuclear weapons times 100kt is 800 megatons, but 100kt is probably way too high an average since a lot, maybe even half, of those warheads are *tactical* nuclear weapons with less than 10kt or even less than 1kt yield.

Any reason they didn't include South Africa? S.A. had over 20 nuclear tests.

Because they didn´t test a singe weapon, with the possible exception of the Vela incident. S.A. only build 6 weapons, and they voluntarily dismantled them.

Also the map and tests were only the tests of bombs. Not the stock pile each state has and had

"...that deprive us every year of billions of dollars that might otherwise have gone into productive investment." This is so critical. One wonders what the market would have done with all of those billions of dollars. I wonder what advances in technology did we forego, or how did it get twisted, because these vast sums of money were diverted towards these "negative and sterile purposes". Ike was right to warn us so long ago. The military industrial complex is our greatest enemy.

Why don't we take it all and dump it into the Cola bore hole. The deepest hole on earth??

Rhodes told you why, we'd run out of uranium. We need it for electrical power.
