This visualization below allows you to see the impact that each user has on the current conversation. The top row contains the group of users who have had the most impact, the 2nd row the group of users who have had the 2nd most impact (et cetera). Users with similar impact are grouped together, and the average score of the group is shown to the left of the group. The author of the article is also shown on the left, in their corresponding group. Each user's score is based on the number of comments the user has made plus the number of votes their comments have received. The scores are calculated relative one another, so while their absolute value is not particularly important, their relative difference does indicate a larger difference in impact on the conversation.

With North Korea there is always something going on behind the scene....they need to be dealt with carefully.

North Korea is flexing its missile muscles, "look what we have". Business for them. Danger for us.

I don't believe that North Korea poses any danger to us other than their seeming ability to supply others with missiles and nuclear materials (maybe).

They will never attack anyone directly. They may be nut jobs but they are not stupid and understand annihilation. Like any regime, they want to survive.

They want something. Unfortunately they are so convoluted no one can really be sure what that is.

But it is important to remember that we lost big opportunities to deal with them under the Bush Administration whose handling of North Korea was completely ham-handed. And whatever North Korea wants at this time we have a new opportunity to deal with them.
