The Liberal argument has been N Korea and Iran cannot reach our shores with the type of missiles they have and therefore we do not need to invest money into a system that may never be used. Well to that I say we have all those nukes planted everywhere around the country and hopefully we won't ever use those weapons either. But that just isn't good enough for me since I'm prone to believe what the thugs in Iran and N Korea have said in the past. Iran and N Korea both are very unstable countries and have threatened us in the past and for me and I'd venture too say it would be wise to think they mean what they say.
Here is my argument since those two countries have made it clear they not only hate us but would to see us blown away. I think we should build the system regardless if their missiles can reach us or not. Iran has made it very clear they are willing to strap bombs to people and therefore they don't mind taking a chance. They have made it clear they can take a ship and fire a missile from offshore and we would not be aware until it was too late. Should that happen, we as a country no longer have that five thousand miles of ocean to protect our asses. I say build the system the cost of building this defense system is far cheaper than trying to recover from nukes blowing up New York ,New Jersey, Chicago and lets not forget the West Coast they happen to be close to the waters edge as well.
