Or more specifically the sanctions must mean Kim is having a harder time than usual importing the caviar, champagne, luxury cars, and European hookers.

Last I checked, they requested about 450~ thousand tons of food aid and are getting about a quarter of that due to being in the time out corner.

I think it's pretty unlikely that they could strike the US mainland directly but, What if they struck someplace else that would effect the US. Say Fukushima, Millions of gallons of contaminated water that would be vaporized into steam and that steam would travel right to the agricultural capitol of the US. Not to mention what it would do to the reactors and fuel storage that isn't already in meltdown.
I'm far from an expert, I'm just and idiot that had a thought what if NK isn't the joke we make them out to be. Our complacency may lead to much suffering. We took Russia for granted and now they are running circles around us and undermining us as they will. We took china for granted and now they own the majority of our manufacturing. We took Muslims for granted and now they are raiding the cities of our greatest allies. Maybe just maybe the joke is on us.

Kim probably doesn't fire on all cylinders or something... nuke-war?! Really? He will be too busy turning into water vapors long before he can even hit the US land.
