This is just another meaningless threat by North Korea. Starting a nuclear war or even deploying one nuclear bomb would be suicide for them. I believe that the only reason that North Korea is even still a country is because of China’s support and aid. Just the fact that China is mentioning  their annoyance with North Korea is a huge step in the right direction. Why does China even allince themselves to North Korea? What does North Korea even have to offer? North Korea doesn’t have any natural resources or land and their people are isolated and sickly. I think eventually China will ditch North Korea and let them be destroyed. If North Korea actually lived up to their nuclear threats, I think China would ditch them instantly.

I kind of agree with this guy but at the same time not completely. I think that social security and medicare should be kept. But that social security shouldn't provide as much welfare as it currently is. I don't think social security is our biggest welfare problem right noew though. I think the biggest problems lies in our uneven taxes, which pretty much discourage people from being successful and helping our economy, and free hand outs to people that are too lazy to get a job. I know people that live off welfare and it is just wrong. I also think that we should slowly take away Indian payments, because it really just makes most of them lazy and alcoholics.
