Those who would caution people that it might be counter-productive to work against the arms race—unless they believe one should work for the arms race—are in effect counseling paralysis. But would they do so in other areas of life? You never know if that car trip to the grocery store won’t be the last thing you do in your life. All life is a gamble.
This problem is very very very difficult.
Unfortunately, advocates of paralysis are usually too paralyzed to advocate paralysis, or I’d suggest we form a religion for paralysis or something.
Those links were interesting. Thanks! It is weird how one of the articles you linked to is only at three. Also, Rain’s play should be an article.
