>>>Do you understand what I’m talking about now?
Not a bit since nothing you say has any relation to the issue at hand. Dragging Marx in this for heavens sake.
A program by astronomers to catalog the debris of the solar system and chart the orbits has no application I can see to everyday life and politics. None whatsoever. Just a few years ago another one of these asteroids passed between the moon and earth. It was a very near miss and we didn’t see it coming. If we now can find these things it seems sensible we do.
When all is said and done, this is simply one more space project. Many have come before, many will follow. Reasonable people can can debate the general or scientific usefulness of any one of them, but I don’t see totalitarianism to have come or likely to result from any of these.
Beyond that to jump on ANY random science discussion just because a second rate politician named Al ran a scam is absurd. I’ve seen it on other threads, most recently one on volcanoes and geology. I usually let it slide but sometimes the paranoia really has to be answered.

So tell me grand poobah, back in the day, how many "reasonable people" thought totalitarianism would result from another NASA program starring one Dr. James E. Hansen?
