Let's think this through a little bit. The plan is to spend $1 megabillion-plus for a Star Wars ABM system that probably won't work, and if it does, likely can be effectively countered by the proverbial "couple of guys in a rowboat." (Does the term "Maginot Line" ring a bell?") We already have plenty of deterrents to keep hostile countries from sending nuclear missiles our way. Each U.S. missile-carrying sub at present has more firepower than all the bombs dropped in WWII. The Cold War has ended; we won. We now have the money and time to start tackling some of the serious social problems facing our society.
