You're right we should spend even more money on a military presence in those poor countries to ensure those people get the food and infrastructure they need because their governments are either corrupt or don't exist in the first place. Oh and we'll also need to maintain that presence indefinitely to maintain that infrastructure We can call it the 1st World's Burden

I did a bit of research and $700m will buy you either: A Hobbit Trilogy, directed by Peter Jackson. Four Van Goghs. A WTC7. An embassy in Iraq. A renovation of Newark airport terminal C. Cigarettes for the entire US military for a year. A 9/11 museum. So if any fucker tells you we could have sorted out third-world problems with the Pluto money, tell them The Hobbit cost the same, and that they only made it to satisfy YOUR desire to watch magic goblins run around New Zealand. You know, as opposed to fulfilling the primal urge for exploration and scientific advancement. EvilGenius fucked around with this message at 19:48 on Jun 20, 2015 |

money represents resources and we're getting about as much food out of the ground as we can, so not sending probes to where ever the gently caress won't feed a single extra person

Out of all the things to get all 'government PORK' and 'ETHICAL SPENDING' about the space program has to be the worst one to get butthurt about. The OCC just hosed over tons of people in Somalia which will most assuredly result in deaths, violence, and hunger but you know: ~The Space Program~ is why developing countries get stomped on continually.

Imagine what they could do if they were funded at the levels people think they are. At the same time, Defense is funded to about 45 cents on the dollar. Haha youre pathetic

If the US spent that on food aid, after President for Life Bogo Shamaz III got through on embezzling it to buy himself a personal 747 and filled it with sex slaves he might feel generous enough to spend the remaining money buying five starving children in his capital city a single snickers bar.
