Shooting balloons is the most popular activity in the US now. 
One balloon one missile.

1 balloon needs one missile, at a cost of USD$350,000 each.  Not worth the price of destroying the balloon.................... Big Grin

Shooting down balloons is typical of a country losing control of its dominance

We should be very worried for USA as it is, like PAP, dying and in death throes
