From the Huffington Post Why Workplace Jargon Is A Big Problem http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/04/25/work-words_n_5159868.html?utm_hp_ref=business&ir=Business When we replace a specific task with a vague expression, we grant the task more magnitude than it deserves. If we don't describe an activity plainly, it seems less like an easily achievable goal and more like a cloudy state of existence that fills unknowable amounts of time. A fog of fast and empty language has seeped into the workplace. I say it's time we air it out, making room for simple, concrete words, and, therefore, more deliberate actions. By striking the following 26 words from your speech, I think you'll find that you're not quite as overwhelmed as you thought you were.

That could be argued both ways. Maybe if we test and it works than other nations are going to say what is the point they could never compete with the US. Maybe China will think wwIII is not a good idea. Of course it could turn out differently and Luxembourg will thing they also need nukes to compete with the US and we start another arms race with more instability.
" This has to ultimately come at the expense to conventional forces."
Good point but than again if someone thinks that the US does not have nukes or they do not work than they could attack. In other words a strong NW deterrent could mean we would need less conventional weapons.
The other issue is China may have been watching what has occurred in the NNSA and DOE since 2000 and think that our capabilities have been degraded. If you take what Nanos had to say about LANL then you might think our capabilities are not what they use to be and that the talent base that existed in the cold war are no longer at the labs. Just a thought. You know when you attack the labs and the people at the labs other nations are paying attention. Now maybe in 2004 no one took China or Russian seriously and we thought that NW are thing of the past but that could be coming back to hurt us now.
I see you have very important insights to add to the discussion.
There are no design or component issues with any systems in the current WR stockpile... but there is something definitely wrong with the brain of the a..hole current occupant of the White House.

New Mexico is still a flyover state. No matter how much you try you will be let into the elite class of educated and woke people.

Only certain flyover states should be allowed to vote.

Who is going to do the "allowing"?
