Men have a right, as you put it, to have their ‘rights’ secure in space also.

Which in no way implies a "right" to force unwilling parties to pay for space activities.

Other than that, you are thinking penny-wise and pound foolish quibbling about a few billion in a multi-trillion dollar economy.

If it's such a puny amount, all the more reason to look to that multi-trillion dollar private sector to come up with it.

Right! its time to feed the homeless and shelter the poor; snowflakes need more safe spaces.

Liberals want tpo rob taxpayers to fund their pet projects; conservatives want to leave money in the pockets of those who earned it.

The heck with Hope

Thanks for outing yourself as an 0bamist.

What is the appropriate role, if any, for government sponsored research and development?

If it directly furthers government's legitimate role of securing men's rights, it's appropriate - otherwise not.

Zero hated space and manned space missions because he would no longer have any control over them. Space is freedom, hope and exploration as well as the future of mankind.

You completely have the absolute wrong headed view of exploration else the West would, following your Scrouge-like penny pinching policies, remain unexplored as would the entirety of the North American continent.

Calling me a name has no business in this forum it is for civil discussions not pissing matches.

Scrouge-like

Whereas you, like all liberals, want to play Saint Nick with other people's money.

[PIF]

Every time you pay your taxes you play “Saint Nick” to someone else’s pet peeve. Like I said this is a conversation not a contest.

Every time you pay your taxes you play “Saint Nick” to someone else’s pet peeve.

Yes, except for defense and a few other legitimate functions. Conservatives oppose forcing taxpayers to play Saint Nick.

[PIF]

Shortsighted and curmudgeon-like Scrooge Conservatives oppose forcing taxpayers to play Saint Nick. They generally despise Hope and Exploration because neither of those words are mentioned in the Constitution. They also oppose any sort of military space ventures, failing to understand that NASA is a military agency.
