Future of manned space flight

  In my opinion there should be very little manned-space-flight future –  for several reasons.

The scientific value of sending people beyond our atmosphere was gained some years ago.  It’s time to cease our manned space program.

We will never colonize another planet.  We will never send people to another star system.  We will never create a self-sustaining, habitable satellite.

We know all we need to know about the physiological and psychological effects of weightlessness – most of which were predicted.  We have devised methods of slowing and limiting those effects – methods for which there is no compelling need.

Our expertise in space flight can remain sharp with more practical programs like GPS and meteorology, and scientific programs like geology and astronomy – and military programs like ICBMs and scuds.  So the space-flight technology will advance after manned space flight ceases.  One might imagine a time when ICBMs can be abolished.

Earth’s resources are limited.  It is unethical for our generation to consume far more than needed. 

Political preference

 

Here is why I prefer the Democratic Party:

Suffering matters.  More suffering is bad.  Less suffering is good.  Nothing else matters.

Overpopulation increases suffering.  Republicans did the gag rule, preventing international family planning.

Resource depletion increases suffering.  Republicans belittle efforts to slow consumption of nonrenewable resources.  Drill baby drill!

Climate change increases suffering.  Republicans oppose efforts to limit global warming – Paris Accords.

Ignorance increases suffering.  Republican media spread many lies every day, every hour.  Few if any scholars or experts appear in Republican broadcasts.

Hate increases suffering.  Listen to Republican pundits a few hours, eg Mark Levin, Sean Hannity.

Poverty increases suffering.  Republican tax policies favoring  the wealthy have decimated the middle class.

Injustice increases suffering.  Democrats are more hospitable to social justice.

It seems to me that:

 

1.  Our society is embracing technologies that will diminish total human satisfaction.

2.  Several financial services unjustly transfer wealth from ordinary people to oligarchs.

3.  The dollar could be preserved by judicious taxation of total wealth (realized and unrealized).

4.  Republicans Made America Greedy Again.  We now leave food rotting in fields and in shipping containers while brown children starve.
