Visiting Mars...
Doggystylin:
wouldnt it be colder on mars? oh hell no
HIPPI:
$820 MILLION for a postcard from Mars. Imagine what we could do with that money on our own planet, better yet, our own fuckin country.
Engel said he likes to learn, well so do many children. Wouldn't it make more sense to use that money for education purposes here, rather than for them to send us photos of a red planet? These fuckin people we put in power will do anything to fatten the pockets of the friends in certain industries. There is nothing else to it. I'm sure they know that E.T. doesn't exist.

And everybody should be paying more attention to it. But, we are the ones on Mars for some reason.

what i'm trying to say is that there are countries that aren't spending billions on weapons...that aren't spending billions on space travel....that aren't spending billions on whatever cause you think is a piece of shit cause....and there are still homeless people....
what should we do with homeless? build them houses? that just leads to more slums....can't get them all jobs....there's no right solution to homelessness
and with education....today's youth doesn't want to learn....if they did, then they'd be in school like they already are. you can't force someone to learn no matter how expensive the books are, or how far buses go to pick them up.... these two problems are left up to the individual to figure out
Trauma-san:
smerlus ^ You forgot, though, personal responsibility is lost in America. Nothing's our fault. If we're fat, it's because of the fast food companies. If we're stupid, it's because of the school system. If we steal something, it's because of society. The only time anything is our fault, is when a kid in columbine shoots his peers at school. Then it's our fault because we weren't his friend.

Going to mars is something ONLY the government can accomplish. You and I can't get together and figure out how to go to mars.
You and I can feed the homeless.
End of story.
