Safety At Home

Defense in the U.S is always a pressing issue in politics. In the past Obama has been more lenient in putting money into missile defense programs. That being said, recently 1 billion dollars was just invested into interceptors for missiles. Why? It's because of North Korea. North Korea has been testing missiles, and they recently sent a missile as far as the Philippines. This is about half the distance from North Korea to the United States.

Although it seems improbable that North Korea will develop a missile that can effectively reach America within the next few years, the threat still looms over our country. As long as this threat remains, I believe our government should do as much as possible to ensure our countries safety.
