Here it is, folks. When your nation is in the midst of a grave–no, make that “a very grave” national security crisis, what can you do?
Do it the American way: Go shopping.
Buy lots of shiny new technology and soon all those threats to our future will disappear.
Just be sure to buy from Rupert Murdoch or the threats won’t go away.

Ask any science teacher about the time consuming dangers of relying on expensive, hard to replace equipment to educate.
