This is just stupid. In order to protect some secrets, the US is willing to take us one step closer to the heavens filled with deadly shrapnel.

20 years from now are we going to be talking about how great it was back in the olden days when we had weather prediction, GPS, TV, and telecommunications?

When something is taboo, like filling the heavens with deadly space junk, the psychological barriers to it are pretty strong. Those barriers have been lowered a significant amount with this stunt.
