Well, whadaya think Warriors?! Totally just “opinion” at this point, but I’m curious how you’re thinking about the way things are progressing in Ukraine and whether we’re headed for a nuclear response.

My magic 8 ball keeps answering “ask again later” on this one. I suspect the odds are low at the moment but if Putin continues to get pushed further in the corner with the increasing arms support being given to Ukraine and decreasing support from the Russian population then anything might be possible.

It sounds like the Russians have been expanding shelter capacity for their civilian population over the past couple decades. As far as I can tell the US has put little to no effort into protecting civilians. If things go haywire Putin just might decide that he can come out ahead in a worse case scenario. He will at least have access to a much larger workforce to put things back together once the radioactive clouds clear.

Yeah, that’s my same assessment TJ. I hate wildcard scenarios though. So many variables – and countries – affecting this one. Will keep watching. 🙂
