Understand this and then I'll go on to apply the idea after this entry.
"As long as it continues, it will continue."
My Quote.
It is a fairly simple concept and it is measured in INVESTMENT. Not just monetary investment, although the monetary investment plays a very big role in the continuation of such idiot inventions as atomic and hydrogen weapons of mass destruction.
This is an interesting graph of global populations borrowed from Wikipedia.
These are credentials of the graph.

World population
chart, from 1800 to 2100 — showing both estimates and actual population
counts.
World population estimates from 1800 to 2100, based on:
United Nations projections (in 2010) —
"high" (colored red)
"medium"
(orange)
"low" (green)
U.S. Census Bureau (historical estimates) — (colored black)
Actual recorded population figures (colored blue)
According to the highest estimate, the world population may rise to 16
billion by 2100; according to the lowest estimate, it may decline to 6
billion.
Why is this important? Because WMD, weapons of mass destruction, will kill more people per square mile in 2015 than it ever killed in 1945 when it is achieved through the use of nuclear weapons. The population of the world is estimated at 2 billion people in 1945. In 2015 the global population is over 7.3 billion people. The future populations are uncertain depending on disease, food and water supply, housing, medicine and yes, war.
How can any country have a conscience that allows it to use WMD?
Currently, countries with these horrendous weapons state they are deterrents. That is probably fairly accurate considering fewer and fewer people own the wealth of the world. Why should greed stop with a country's borders? And why wouldn't the same wealth merchants have a conscience to never kill masses of people that get in the way of their desires? Who's to stop them? Some might ask who is to stop the USA anyway after Cheney leaned into the idea "limited nuclear war" is survivable.
Survivable. I could not believe the special program CNN ran about the aftermath of the weapon's use in WWII. They showed disfigurement and defects and people with some degree of unwellness, but, the idea was most of the people of Japan survived the assault of that evil weapon.
There are no words to describe the indigestion I felt as I watched this evil program that disregarded morality and placed such killing into the realm of moral and just. Pure unadulterated evil was now to be moral and just.
So, "As long as it continues, it will continue."
