Putin's Nuclear Weapons Legacy- Bringing Human Existence Closer To An End

     Putin announced new advances regarding Russian nuclear weapons, including nuclear weapons  that cannot be stopped. He said this will make other countries listen to Russia.
      The world already knows that Putin is one of the most powerful persons in the world, if not the most powerful. Every single human being exists on this planet for but a short period of time. Every one, no matter how rich, no matter how powerful, ends up in the same place as the poorest, least powerful person. Rich and powerful people, like all people, are like the passing wind. Here today, gone tomorrow.
       If only the rich and powerful like Putin could see how unimportant they really are, and contribute to the world only that which is enduring and good.
         Nuclear weapons do not make the world safer. They do not make Russia safer or more powerful. Even if Russian nuclear weapons are unstoppable and strike the United States, the nuclear fallout from those weapons alone will poison the planet. But it will not end there. The United States will strike back, and the exploding nuclear weapons of the United States and Russia combined will ensure the end of virtually all life on the planet.
          The super rich and powerful often live lives divorced from reality. This world faces enormous  problems that ensure a bleak future, including biodiversity collapse, poisoned oceans, and severe environmental degradation that result in extreme misery, poverty and hunger.
           Nuclear weapons are a complete waste of money and resources. They do not advance a country or the world, and only further mankind's haste to destroy itself.
