DC spends tens of thousands per second, 40+% of it borrowed money, and we are engaged in a discussion about moon colonies?!?! Moon colonies or Mars colonies are all well and good; but until we deal with 16 trillion in debt and 50+ trillion in unfunded liabilities, not to mention trillions in state and municipal debt and liabilities, you are truly fiddling while the barbarians break down the gates. Get a grip people! We’re looking at a deep contraction, perhaps a depression of historical proportions, and people are arguing over moon colonies! WTF?
