As i have said before, i have no problem with upgrading technology, as long as there are no more bombs built. AKA replacing old technology. I am full on in favor of scrapping most of our nukes, it is redundant to have them, not to mention to pay for their upkeep. But i agree full nuclear disarmerment is a great idea, but not plausable. That would be like disarming the military and police. The quasi good will generally follow the rules, but the bad, never will...

There would still be plenty of funding for Defense contractors even if new nukes werent built. There is a laudry list of new technologies being developed that have nothing to do with nuclear bombs... Further more, i again see no problem updating technologies, while dumbing/disarming old ones. I think a decent solution is to continuely replace and disarm old technology.

And no one bought the presidency, there were many studies done by independant news sources that backed the Electoral COllege, and the supreme court. One of which was done by CNN, which is by no means a concervative entity...
