Steve's barking at the wussifcation of the United States

I know I'm missing something, but why is the United States turning into Wuss nation.
Every time I turn on one of those cable news station I keep hearing the the Chicken Little's and the Henny Pennies, screaming the sky is falling, the sky is falling. Public Employees are bankrupting the government.
We can't keep borrowing, the Chinese aren't going to lend us anymore. Were going to have hyper inflation.
We can't have terrorist trials in NYC. The terrorist will try to attack NYC if we do. NYC will become a prime target.
Lets go to the last statement first. NYC is a prime target, that's right NYC is a prime target. The terrorist are trying at his very moment trying to think up ways to attack New York. If we were to have trials in New York there suddenly going to get smarter. I keep hearing and reading from the media that it will cost 200million dollars to have the trial in New York and it will bring hardship on the business' that make up downtown. It's like breaking up the streets doesn't hurt the downtown business district. If we can't have a trial with giving a 95% chance that nothing will happen and that the 200 million dollar price tag will only add 2% better protection. My understanding there have been terrorist trials in London, they had Hussein's trial in Baghdad,
but New York can't have Trial.
Let me try to understand to People's Republic Of China's to wanting to help finance the United State's. That must be because they don't want to buy dollars from exporters of there manufactured goods and replacing them with the Chinese currency. Maybe they want to close those factories and bring on civil unrest.
What are the Chinese going to with the extra dollars, let them just sit there.
Now we come to those pontificators who claim that civil servants are the ruination  of  government budgets.
These pundits who make upwards of high 6 to 7  or 8 figures wanting he civil servant unions to take pay cuts to help a minute portion of government budgets to be closed.
They complain civil servant pensions even though these pensions should be payed for before the member retires.
But  if something isn't done life as we know it will be over.
