[QUOTE="DadOf5, post: 7415, member: 15"] [b]Padraic[/b] The acronym for the arms race during the cold war is probably one of the most accurate in history. It was called MAD for Mutually Assured Destruction. The point was to build so many nuclear weapons that if any country started a nuclear war, they could be assured that they would also be destroyed in retaliation. In its own peculiar way, it was a deterrent to nuclear war. The arms race was also a driving factor in the ending of the cold war. The arms were so expensive to manufacture that in tryng to keep up with the United States, the Soviet Union drove itself to financial ruin. The failing Soviet economy was a large factor in the collapse of the Soviet Union. [/QUOTE]
