Stephen Schwartz, Editor of The Nonproliferation Review presents the main finding of the Carnegie Endowment report "Nuclear Security Spending: Assessing Costs, Examining Priorities" at a luncheon seminar at the James Martin Center for Nonproliferation Studies. The purpose of the report was essentially an effort to quantify as best as possible how much money the U.S. is spending on an on-going basis on everything related to nuclear weapons, not just costs of supporting production and deployment, but also all the costs for command and control, communications, control networks, nuclear waste cleanup, and the costs of dealing with threats and compensation for people harmed by the production and test of nuclear weapons.
