I am so glad i did not post my comment - you put it much better than I could have had. I am really annoyed by this rhetoric false choice as well because I am always feeling like I need to justify not "helping the homeless".
It always baffles me that people seriously bring it up against space exploration instead of at least argue against something sensible like by mail advertisements thats is completely useless and inarguably damaging.
- malfist 5y agoAny public expenditure could be weighed against "helping the homeless" or "feeding the hungry" I don't know why space is about the only thing that falls victim of it. You could literally throw anything against it i.e., why build an airport/road/hydropower dam/new city hall/park bench/etc when there's homeless here? It's frustrating. But I think it gives you a good insight on if someone is a long term or short term thinker.
