You know why people don't build fallout shelters or have kids get under their desks at school anymore for nuclear war drills?

It's because that stuff all happened 50 years ago when nukes and missiles weren't that sophisticated and maybe they could have survived, at least for a while.

Missiles are VERY sophisticated now and they all have "multiple" warheads. People now realize that if you DID survive you wouldn't survive for long.

But, I wasn't just talking about nuclear war although the instability in Russia now with Putin totally in charge of a country with no real structure beneath Putin makes volatility there much more dangerous.

I was also talking about global warming, death of the oceans, super viruses, debt that can't be sustained and everything else.

I really don't think it's a great time to bring a child into the world.
