International morale

[–] the_q@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

You think going to the moon will boost morale better then something like fixing corruption or starting ubi or making sure everyone has food and shelter?

Unironically yes, I do believe that. Space exploration is a worthy endeavor in and of itself and takes up a fraction of the budget.

I disagree, but that's fine. Good thing I don't run the world, eh?

Do you disagree concerning what would motivate you or the average person in the world? I'm answering based on the latter.
