A wonderful thought, but the size of the military budget is a feature, not a bug, for those who allocate it.

  Maybe we can get the military industrial complex into the nuclear industrial complex instead? Though one must be careful what one is wishing for I guess.

    From the "Schlock Mercenary" web comic: "Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from a really big gun." Yes, be careful what you wish for.

    For the trillions we have flushed down the drain in the Middle East, we could have weaned ourselves off foreign oil with renewables, without even getting into nuclear. Sadly, it goes back to the “feature, not a big” thing. :(
