70 fucking years. That's working out well for us. On one hand, it's hard to believe that anyone, even the USA, did something so monstrously evil, but on the other hand, the Allies had been firebombing much of the Europe and Asia with impunity, so...
Nobody's been stupid enough to drop the big one since America did, twice, but the construction, testing, and spending on nuclear weapons and their delivery systems for 70+ years have pretty much destroyed the developed (and developing) world. The modern age has been very lucrative for certain folks, but that money and that time and that effort could have transformed the entire planet into something decent, but instead was wasted on terror and pollution and profiteering. Working real well for us.
