Let them keep spending resources. They have been limited even more on the receiving end as of last week.
Folks have to realize, they can test all they want. Should anyone shoot their 'test' missile down, it is an act of war. The unfortunate circumstances are that until he actually hits some sort of entity or property, he will receive the attention he wants as opposed to open conflict.

Shooting missiles over the airspace of another country which NK calls as an enemy, out of the many they have, it's an act of war.

Do we know what height the missile was at when over Japan and not international waters? Since the defined airspace is 12 nautical miles straight up, and I know the missile reached a maximum height of 400+ miles in it's trajectory, Im curious if we know that particular data?

Why would China and Russia have better relations with the US? In case you didn't notice yet: they don't like you.
MOSCOW — It could be the start of a new era of mutual admiration or a diplomatic move to gain the upper hand with a new American president.

This is all so........ Conviniently timed, wouldn't ya say?
There's no new war to wage. No new scare for people to hang on to.
Kim: Oh I know, I'll fire at the ocean!
West: YES!!!!! We mean......Ahem...... Oh no ANOTHER (sarc) threat has appeared (cue pokemon music)
The west uses nuclear arsenal (It's super effective) North Korea misses a turn, North Korea fainted.
This cycle of one boogieman after the next is SO utterly boring!
