In the 1945 the United States of America dropped atomic bombs on Japan. What if the United States shared their knowledge of Atomic energy with the rest of the world and it became the main resource of the world.

The United States Postal Service (USPS) should not change nor should they go completely online‚ due to the amount of people without internet access‚ and for that‚ people would no longer be able to receive or send mail.
