Let's say the US balkanizes, becomes decentralized and finally stateless. What to do with the nukes that were left over? Who controls them if there's no central power? Obviously, there should just be no nukes, but let's say other countries that are still states have them, so would it be prudent to denuclearize?

    nuclear hellfire will be the dominant theme of the US warlord period

    that's my greatest fear. and honestly, even just nuclear plants. they just melt down and leak toxic shit left unattained.. and since all of that is privately owned, i fear the owners would just fuck off when shit hits the fan
