For this, we must cut Social Security?

by David Atkins

North Korea makes "threatening" videos. The results are hilarious:



The dog armies are sure to overwhelm us any day now, as are those impeccable gun safety techniques.

On a more serious note, this is the nature of the actual threats we face today on a military level. North Korea, and a shrinking Al Qaeda networks best managed as a targeted intelligence operation. A hot war with China would be unthinkable and pointless. Meanwhile, by far the biggest long term threat to America's security is mass instability and migration caused by climate change.

The idea that we need to maintain a military operation that spends more than the rest of the world combined is insane. To cut Social Security in order to maintain it is insane. To cut Social Security as a way of avoiding cuts to that military as part of the sequester is also insane.
