I watched a Canadian film from the 1980s detailing what would happen if there was a nuclear war. They showed the scenes of B52s flying, nuke keys turning, and underground centers. The moral of the story was Canada's plains would be radioactive because of nearby US bases.
Then I saw a video of people sneaking into a decaying Soviet era nuke base and US people creating silo B&Bs.
So much money is wasted by old guys afraid of their own desires they feel the need to suppress everyone else.
