What can you do with $80,000,000?
How many firecrackers could you buy?
This is the price tag for the latest test of the Pentagon’s anti-missile defense system.
One side of me says hurray and one side of me says holy s**t!
The latter opinion is my reaction to the cost of the defense missile system for the previous five years: $43,000,000,000.
But the yea side of me is stronger than the nay side.
It is better to have the capacity to defend against incoming missiles than not to have any capacity.
In the long and short term it is best for U.S. security to have a system that can destroy missiles that want to kill Americans.
Give kudos for this new system.
Let’s hope that it only gets better and better.
North Korea and other nations may think twice before they start any missile lobbing.
