Agreed Mercen... as fucked up as it is, our species has really screwed ourselves over by removing all external threatening species... IRL there is just little to no motivation as a species to help ourselves, just about any issue threatening our species is almost universally/relatively ignored or self created... when was the last time major nations actually invested in space programs?

Weapons technology has in many ways become increasingly irrelevant, it doesn't matter that 1 soldier can press a button and wipe out 1000 foes at once if no-one actually fields soldiers... it just increases the liability if a terrorist steals it... especially since if no-one fields soldiers... the soldiers themselves really can either never use it or end up using it on civilian populations.

There are many reasons to wish to live in such a world.
