Breakthrough: Manned Space Travel Achieved Using 40-Year Old Technology

"Paul Rosenberg has uncovered some surprising new evidence that manned space travel is not only possible, it has actually been achieved using decades-old technology.

It is uplifting to read that "Productive humans have been delegated to mute observance as their hard-earned surplus is syphoned off to capital cities, where it is sanctimoniously poured down a sewer of cultured dependencies and endless wars..." for it must take something really compelling to prevent us from reaching the stars, and he has nailed it. This essay makes the case that the headliner of 2052 may well be: Breakthrough: Manned Space Travel Achieved Using 80-Year Old Technology. I can hardly wait! Down with robots."

The law against gaming the system is there not to catch people who just split the deposits...

What about the Apollo project? They made HUGE progress (at HUGE cost), but met their goal in less than a decade, having to develop almost all the technology from scratch!

This is ALL TRUE!
