Nuclear weapons are seriously deadly. But a defense strategy called "Nuclear Deterrence" might make it less likely for international nuclear powers to ever use them, keeping the world safer as a result. The United States is a known nuclear superpower. While other countries, like North Korea, are building up their nuclear arsenals, should the US invest more in building bigger and deadlier nukes?
