An arms race with North Korea would be like a clothes production contest between my grandmother and Mervyns.

Mervyn's doesn't make clothes, they buy them from various suppliers. I used to know a manager of one who had been a buyer in the past.
Maybe this is related to your patriot thoughts and how they relate to the article gatti posted showing fairly positive news about missile-defense programs?
