Default Parity
Would this solve anything ?
Same everything between opposing ideologies. Army, Navy, Air Forces. Size, training, tactics & logistics.
Same tanks, planes, ships & resources.

What would become of Military "Parity".

Mexican Stand-off ?
Total annihilation ?
A "Forever War" (sorry Joe Haldeman) ?
Isolationism ?
A permanent "state" of fear, (knife's edge) ?
Utopia ?
Science, Space, Arms race ?
Peace and a normal life ?
Fight each other with lawyers ?
Go crazy ?
Dirty deals & ganging up ?

This is what the small ones try for, and the larger ones try to prevent.
What if parity came to pass ?
Is the world, are we, better off without it ?

Does the world need a Parent, Teacher, Boss, Policeman ?

Dogs and children do.

"If" Parity is a pipe-dream, why have we tried for it so hard and so long ?
