Sell our nukes to Iran to pay off debt
Sell our nuclear weapons to Iran to pay off debt
So from what little we know about the Iran deal the one thing the government has not said is the deal will prevent Iran from being able to produce a nuclear weapon at any point in the future.
So I propose an alternative to the Iran deal. Let us sell a couple of our own nuclear weapons that we can spare for say, $18 trillion to pay off our debt, to Iran and then we can scrap any deal.
If you think that is a crazy idea then I’d love to hear your thoughts on why any deal that lets Iran become a nuclear power in the future is good or bad for us.
