And just from a personal standpoint, putting all your efforts into pragmatic concerns like poverty and whatnot just feels too utilitarian. I'd rather be a little frivolous and allow our race to actually indulge its ****ing imagination.

Duh. Spending money on things that give us actual culture will probably always seem like a criminally pointless waste of resources to someone below the poverty line, but if you went down that road then the entire music industry would likewise be a complete waste of time that could be better spent on doing things that tangibly improved the lives of others. Spending money on frivolous things that stick with the human race long after they are built or discovered or accomplished or chiseled (music, the Pyramids, the moon landing, etc) gives the human race "texture" and personality that makes the world more than just a depressing collection of Soviet housing blocks.

Now that's a damn hefty claim to be making.

Other than the possibility of finding proof of alien bacterial life under the surface of Europa, science has long ago proven there's nothing else to gain from our own solar system. So awesome idea, let's gut the house we live in so a bunch of boys with expensive toys can see if there's a way to build a tree house in the swimming pool.

@Chula Please you would've been all over it if it was Obama's move.
