    How about paying the government deficit that is about to default in a month so humans can habitat Earth first

      Hey, great. You send your dollars to the Space Foundation, or whoever. I choose not to, 'cause the sun isn't going to incinerate the earth in my lifetime, or the lifetime of anyone I'll ever know. Don't presume to use the force of government to make me contribute to your cause, unless you're going to contribute to mine, which is funding my retirement account.
