  • It is a point for them to coexist. It’s called plausible deniability.

    What exactly are you trying to argue? That it’s not a good reason for a country to get a bunch of uranium without raising questions?

    There was absolutely no incentive to research more about alternative fuels, uranium and plutonium were materials the nuclear powers wanted. For more than just 1 reason…

    If countries REALLY wanted nuclear power without Uranium. They would have researched it. Like China have. But no one else has. Well some have, but they all gave up a long time ago.

    If they call you in, it’s compulsory.

    However, they call far from everyone, and there’s about 1001 things you can do to not get called for service if you really don’t want to.

Could be administrative tasks, logistical, construction, anything really, depends on who you are and what your experience is. This is not something you can get out of. It’s one of your duties as a citizen
