Ray's Thought for the Day - Missiles

You know, for a long time I thought missiles was a synonym for little girls. But those days when I thought that are long since past. These days, now that everyone is praying to their personal god(s) goddess(es) that stray missles or their parts that have fallen off, won't hit me, Ray, and I'm sure those prayers will be answered, maybe, I, Ray have an idea.

Here's my idea. It's what our precious ruling class could do to test our presumptive missile defense system. Our precious ruling class could get in touch with their ruling class buddies in foreign parts that have missles. I suspect these would be mainly British and Israeli ruling class types. Our precious ruling class and the foreign ruling class bunch could maybe have some meetings, mixing business with pleasure at a lovely resort somewhere to set this up, maybe in Dubai. The plan would be for the foreign rulers to authorize shooting their missiles at us. Then we could shoot them down, sometimes, maybe. The result would be happy times for all the rulers who could suddenly buy up all the missile manufacturing capacity they don't own already, knowing in advance that missiles would be in high demand. Our ruling class and the foreign rulers could shoot missiles back and forth, testing our system, until our system was perfect. This could take awhile and could be worth billions to the rulers. Plus, all the ignoramuses everywhere could watch the missiles and anti-missles blow each other up on TV. Only fair, since the ignoramuses would be paying for the missiles, maybe.

My idea would be such a profound boon to the global economy, especially the missile production part of the economy, and also for TV advertising for the fireworks shows, that er, well, it's just inconceivable what could be accomplished in terms of global progress.
