Space Cadet

I am absolutely mortified at the idea of the United States government and "space policy", for a host of reasons. One- I would think that this country could find better use for funds, say to repair the education system, the horrific poverty etc. Two- I think that the United States has proven that in all its endeavors it has imperialist intentions, and there are limitless avenues for corruption in this area. And three, the most disturbing aspect is the potential for Space Nuclear Power- there needs to be environmental questions asked, potential human rights issues...like nuclear proliferation.
