Duck and Cover: Americans Fearing Nuclear War Spend Big to Hide Underground

Mushroom cloud from an American atomic bomb test on January 17, 1962. The test was designated Upshot Knothold Grable shot No. 10.

Ripped from a post-World-War-II meme, Americans in 2017 are spending big to build expensive underground bunkers to weather what they fear will be a nuclear attack.

In the wake of the Trump administration's rise to power, the increased action of the US military worldwide has led to predictions of war, and for many Americans that means hiding underground, just like what their grandparents did, fearing a nuclear holocaust during the 20th century's Cold War.
But for other Americans, that fear is translated into profit.
