You bemoaned (or I thought you did) the fact that you have to hope that a US nincompoop doesn't control the nukes.

I was saying that if you want to control them yourself.. it's easy... just spend $600 billion/yr.

That was facetious. Your country learned a long time ago that that's not a good idea.

One of these days, my country will figure that out.
