There is more oil in Alaska than there ever was in Saudi Arabia. That combined with the oil off the gulf of Mexico witch is also a sizable reserve makes most of the first half of what you said wrong. The problem with America is the Bureaucracy not allowing refineries to be built. We have the oil, we just don’t have the infrastructure to produce any bi-products of the oil that we do have.

Moving on to the subs. The USSR never had better subs. They did however, have bigger subs. The Typhoon class subs were nearly 3 times the size of our subs and could carry several times the payload. But the size of the payload is a moot point when an American sub can sneak within a couple meters, take a picture of the hull number and sneak away without being detected. We did that sort of thing just to prove to the Russians that they needed to cool their jets. If you really want to see the pictures check out old copies of Der Spiegel. The Typhoon also used the same reactor technology that the Russians use to this day. The cooling system on the Typhoon class is the same reactor used to this very day. You can hear it with the naked ear when the sub surfaces it’s so loud.

As for the nuclear reply from China? The Chinese still use Tower launched devices. You can watch them screwing around with their missiles from satellite days before they’re prepared to launch. That makes them pretty easy targets, don’t you think? With technology to be able to destroy a target anywhere in the world in 12 hours or less the Chinese logistically can’t actually retaliate.

You’re right. Radiation does kill all mankind. I just don’t like it when people quote the out dated study that showed that the US could destroy the world 20 times over with it’s arsenal. It’s a misguided study, and founded on nearly no hard data. The bikini islands were home to some of the biggest yield devices ever devised. 100, 150, 200, 250 megaton devices were detonated there, and you might notice that there are people living there these days. Nuclear fallout is not an eternal problem by any means.

Finally I find it incredible that you suggest that I measure my hear instead of my penis. I’m simply stating facts to correct a mistake in one of your earlier posts. I didn’t insult you in any way that I’m aware of, and I find it incredibly rude that you insult me multiple times in your rebuttal. I am by no means a “war-monger” I’m simply a person who doesn’t like misconceptions about nuclear devices to be spread.

How do you make a nuclear device more effective and cut down on fall out? Air bust. Detonating the device at 30,000 ft creates a devastation aria many times larger than a ground burst, doesn’t kick up as much fall out, and is far less limited by geography and ‘hardened’ buildings. So in actuality the US could destroy the earth several hundred times with it’s arsenal.

Wana know something truly terrifying? There is more firepower on board a fully loaded current US nuclear submarine than the human race has let loose in it’s entire existence. Even better? There isn’t a country in the world that can detect one of these boats when it goes silent. It can stay submerged indefinitely. As long as there is sufficient food on board a US submarine can stay out at sea.

Take a moment and think about that. Enough fire power to destroy a medium sized country in the blink of an eye and it’s basically undetectable.

And that is why China will never invade America. Because when they begin steaming here on their rinky-dink fleet of diesel powered boats they will be able to actually see their country’s major cities lit by nuclear fire shortly before being destroyed themselves.

1, you don’t understand physics. like, at all.
2, lasers aren’t nearly that powerful
3, you really think nobody has ever even thought about safe acceleration speeds yet, dingus?
4, you’re an idiot
