You see, as you all recall a long time ago there was what was called "the Cold War". Does everyone remember that? Good, I was hoping you did because I'm not wasting my breath explainging it to you. But, it was key to this because that's when the space program was born. America started the space program in their greta country to try and beat those damn commies into space. It served no purpose but bragging rights. If America beat the USSR into space it would unite the country. Unfortunately they didn't, but they did beat them to the moon. After the moon landing and the 70's space travel became boring, so they started to venture off further into space to explore regions previously unknown to mankind. They wanted to discover things to help find the answers to all of the questions about the universe. Well, as you all know we will never understand everything there is out there, so in theory this whole idea was just a waste of billions of dollars of annual tax payers money. Space travel no longer served any real purpose. Well no purpose I would even begin to call worthy of the lives of several hundreds of people and trillions of dollars of the years.
Each day hundreds of people across America die because of starvation and such. There are plenty of homeless people and a horrible problem with federal health care. The constant issue comes up that there is no room in the budget to help these things. But is there really no room in the budget for it? You see, each year NASA fucks every American over by taking billions of dollars and putting it into their studies. Why not use that money to help the millions of people worldwide starving to death every day? Why not use that money to help the 1 billion people on this planet who live on less than a single dollar a day? Why not deal with the issues we have here on this fucking planet that we inhabit before exploring the unexplainable realms of the universe? I say we keep those annual billions of dollars and rid the world of starvation, homelessness, health care problems and so on.
Next, Our planet has suffered greatly from humans and their chemicals and pollution. Why is it necessary to go to space to pollute that? We've destroyed our own planet and now they seek to destroy the whole fucking universe! There is a ring of pollution around the goddamn Earth in space from everything. There is even talk of them dumping our garbage from here on Earth into space. What the fuck? Why are people so stupid? The space program has turned into total uselessness! All they do now is study shit in space for our planet. But why study it in space when you can more easily study it here on Earth? Afterall, there is no greater replica of Earth than Earth itself. Why would you leave to a place with no friction that is completely different from Earth to see how some experiments might work here on Earth? It's moronic! Absolutely moronic!
Okay, now to the astronauts who died. They died, sure that sucks. But I never knew them, just as I never knew the millions of people dying EVERY SINGLE DAY! People die every day and they never make it into the federal newspapers! What the fuck is wrong with this world? I mean, if these astronauts were actually serving some valid purpose in space, other than destroying the Universe, furthering the decline of existence on Earth and wasting money that could have been used to save a whole fuckiung country from starvation than i would begin to feel sorry for them. Unfortunately, as I explained earlier, there was no valid reason for these people to be in space other than feeding our curiosity about Space and the Universe. The day this country lowers their flag at half mast for the millions of lives they are at fault for every day is the day I will lower my flag for seven overpaid people who died doing their fucking job! They knew the risks involved. You don't become an astronaut thinking that when you go into space on a twenty year old shuttle that you are guaranteed to arrive alive. It's not that simple people! Let me put it into perspective. People die every day just by living, these astronauts were guaranteed food, shelter and everything if they stayed here on Earth. But no, they were unsatisfied with all they had that billions of people don't even have a bit of. So, they went into space, which means having to re-enter this Earth by having to penetrate the Earth's atmosphere which guarantees temperatures hotter than your fucking oven. These people knew the risks, they had all they needed on this planet, but acting off greed they wanted more and paid for it. A disaster is when something happens that shouldn't have happened or wasn't even in the realm of possibility of happening. This any one could have seen happening. But, for some reason, we feel the need to mourn these seven people rather than the millions of people who die every day because people would rather go into space than save their lives.
Rest on next page.
