The Moon doesn't have any infrastructure! Go! Get it now! We can create all kinds of over-controlling government there!

I don't know much about space or going there. I don't know what NASA does. I imagine there has been some technological progress resulting from the efforts to get into space and hang out there. It probably isn't fair to say that the entire space program is a waste of time and money because there probably have been ideas and inventions that once were come across in preparation for space, but have been integrated into our daily lives. Such as, but not limited to, the magnetic tip screwdriver (I don't have any idea who invented this or when), dehydrated ice cream, the celebrity of Neil Armstrong, the Moon landing hoax theories and the Disney channel. If you know other things that came as a result of the U.S. space program, please share. There has to be some reason why we have been spending billions of dollars for so many years to fly into space and look around. It's really great to see pictures of things that are too far away to really see, you know, from a few miles closer than if we just took the pictures from Earth. Those Hubble produced pictures have inspired some really rad desktop wall papers and screen savers.

Well, I think it's kind of ridiculous that we are sending rockets to the moon to take pictures when our country is falling apart economically. People are losing jobs and faith in the government at a steady rate. Businesses are closing and someone is probably going hungry, but what can a billion dollars do to help that? Nothing, apparently. Let's just pack it in a big firework and send it to the Moon. Unless this Moon stuff is part of the plan. Maybe we are going to finally colonize the Moon and that's where those 100,000 jobs created per month promised by President Obama will be staffed! There aren't any government jobs on the Moon right now, the growth would be monumental. They'll need a governor, a governors staff, a post office and all kinds of things. There will need to be a department of lunar vehicles to register that rover. Roads will need to be built. You know, I think this is a good idea. I was being sarcastic at first, ignorantly questioning the spending priorities of some people in this country, wondering why they would rather put cameras in space than to feed hungry children, but now I understand. The Moon is the bailout plan and the stimulus.

Now it makes sense. We'll colonize the moon and create intergalactic government. That ought to play into Pres. Obabma's desire to be world president as well, who can dispute you if you own the Moon? Nobody. Unless they own the Sun. Good luck with that, North Korea. I'm tired of this now. Bye.
