Lets say the war never happens would you live in the world of fallout?

Considering that I would be (At best) a second class citizen in US-occupied Canada, probably not

But then again I could join a resistance cell and eat a whole bunch of bullets and laser beams when I try to take on a T-51b soldier.

But if the war never happened then that raises some interesting questions, since the Fallout world before the war is marked with extreme instability and open warfare. Is it just that the wars never go nuclear? Or maybe there's some sort of massive disarmament program. Even then, the American citizens pre-war were pretty much got stripped of their rights as the situation got more and more desperate. Even if I was a American, I wouldnt want to live in that world.

Yes I want a Mr. Handy to take out the trash for a change...

War. War never happens.

Hmm. Doesn't quite have the same ring to it.

No, I wouldn't want to live in the prewar Fallout world. This is a place where companies put deadly radioactive isotopes into toy rockets (to make them glow!) and hand them out to children.
