NO! We should spend every single penny we have to feeding the poor! Do you hate the homeless and starving or something?

Look at this poor starving mother and daughter. NASA has LITERALLY stolen money that would've been given to them to send whitey on the moon. That's so sad. Why should we spend money progressing science and engineering in space when we have REAL problems here on Earth!

Remember that NASA's current annual budget is only about 3% comparatively of what the United States gives annually to it's social programs. So next time when someone says that NASA's budget should be redistributed to "feed the poor" ask them if 3% would actually help "the poor" compared to putting thousands of highly skilled people out of work and crippling US space interests. Interests such as science, GPS, communications, weather tracking, maritime trade monitoring, etc. Remind these people that space isn't just some place nerds obsess over, and it is a place where legitimate interests for the country rest in.
