I recently started a new job and haven't been able to watch much of the news. Can you tell me whats going on?

Question

I have not had a chance to watch the news lately. And my boyfriend says that Korea is going to send some satelite missiles into space and that they won't let us see them. But if they come our way he will send our missiles to destroy them. My mom has a diffirent story. She says that they have missiles aimed at New York and the West Coast. What is true And how bad is the situation really. Is this something new or has it been going on for a long time and they are just exaggerating. Hopefully I.m just scaring myself. Please tell me what you think. Scared in Albuquerque.

Answer 1

War and more war, sad isn't it.

Answer 2

Well, in NJ they are raising the taxes and this will drive all the good business out of the state and create more unemloyment which will require more taxes to pay for. Meanwhile, when the pendulum swings, the next administraton will lower taxes so they will have more business here and therefore more people employed and even more taxes from the businesses pouring into the government to pay public bills. New Jersey is scary enough without Korean Missiles. Korea and Iran are screwed up countries. N. Korea is poor and screwed up and Iran is rich and screwed up. Both want attention and the best way to get it is to throw a tantrum. Missiles and nuclear power for weapons equals tantrum. No bombs headed our way from Korea or Iran yet, but for now the issue is taxes. And that's the news for now. It will be the same tomorrow. Go to work and enjoy yourself. Get a life. The news is recycled every few months anyway and most people don't even notice. Names and pictures change b ut it is the same news. Take a walk in the woods. Go fishing. If they drop a bomb on us, somebody will be sure to let you know.
