America could stop spending so much money on killing and death, and be a real space-hero nation.
Its an uncomfortable truth, but there are a lot of better things America could be doing with its war economy.
- happyscrappy 11y agoWhat is your excuse for other nations who don't spend enough on space programs? Or is the US the only country with an obligation to explore space?
- fit2rule 11y agoPlenty of nations should be spending more on space, but all of them should be spending less on war.
- hueving 11y agoThat's a pretty rudimentary and tired view. Having a single super power that acts as playground bully seems to leave the world in a pretty stable state. It's hard to ignore that fact. A massive cut in the military budget could have unintended consequences of another cold war, etc.
- DanBC 11y ago> leave the world in a pretty stable state. I genuinely can't tell if you believe that or if you're being sarcastic. US + others military intervention has left many bits of the world in a terrible state.
