From this:


to this:

in my lifetime.

If there were nothing else, no further benefit, no other good, it would be worth it.

Your lifetime? In my lifetime we’ve gone from Hiroshima and Nagasaki to Natanz and
Yongbyon, and it’s been downhill all the way. I currently live in the only country ever
to relinquish its nuclear arsenal, and it had the third-largest after only the United
States and Russia. It was promised much economic aid at the time, which it never really
received. It is now very depressed.

I am now very depressed, too, and anxious, like a patient just starting on an SSRI.
