    “Access to space”. What will that provide for starving people Lol. Yes, doing nothing is the best here should be obvious. We did nothing before it worked quite well people seemed happier.

      When exactly is “before”? We’ve had a space program since the 50’s. You know, when we landed on the moon.

      Perhaps a corporate income tax or a billionaire wealth tax should be used to pay for food for starving people. Since, you know, corporate profits and billionaires actually do nothing to help the populus.

      And while we’re at it, why not universal healthcare?

        Lol, everyone said everything started declining after the 50s. You kinda just proved my point space exploration has ruined what should be the golden age of the United States. Taxing billionaires wont solve the problem. Most of their income comes from the government anyway. $2,000,000,000 goes straight into a corporate account owned by Elon from NASA. Bezos has a similar situation with Amazon. No one is saying to tax them. We’re just saying to defund them lol because they aren’t even earning their money. They get a blank credit card from the US government to launch rockets… Bezos is joining in now too. It’s amazing to me people don’t realize this is just the military industrial complex funding all of this.
