Hard disagree on the nuclear part - going nuclear stops the gravy train for arms contractors because of guaranteed escalation. They'll just do what the bazingafied Pentagon has done for the past 40 years, outsource it more.

Former jet ski dealership owners who built bomb factories as "a rare investment opportunity" will become radicalized against the military industrial complex.
