Toasters, hairdryers, blenders, ovens, or... Tactical Nuclear Weapons?!
It's pretty much a sure thing that you either used to, currently, or will own at least one General Electric product...
(Source for Hiroshima detonation left, Nagasaki right.)
It made sense for GE to be manufacturing nuclear weapons. They were involved in the nuclear industry since the days of the Manhattan Project, participating in the development of the first atomic bombs and nuclear reactors, and eventually submarines, and carriers. They still build and work with reactors all over the world. (Fukushima Daiichi power plant in Japan is one recently made-famous example.)
Two and a half decades ago, General Electric was earning billion of dollars, as their nuclear weapons sales made up 11% of their total revenue. No other corporations were as involved in the production and promotion of Nukes as was GE. Learn from one of the organizers, about the protesting and P.R. campaigns in the early '90s, which eventually lead to them shutting down their nuclear weapons business. (They still do ok $$$...)
Still cool with MiniGuns though, so here's a meme!^^
