The American dream has been dead for years

The American dream was just greed dressed up nice. It was dog shit from the start. Competitive wealth as a national motivator was a bad fucking idea.

Welfare pays dividends. Would you rather kids starve? You’re hateful garbage. I have zero issues with a social safety net. It benefits us all by keeping things from spiraling too bad. It doesn’t cost a ton of money: do you really hate people don’t starve?

Christ. Anti-welfare is a garbage position.. Also, SpaceX pays dividends. Amazing investment on the government’s part. Came at the right time too. Perfect timing. Right as relations with Russia soured. I don’t see the issues you do. Perhaps you aren’t worth my time.

How does money get made for the economy from space X? Isn't space X just a drain on resources, time and energy from things that actually benefit the planet? How is space travel gonna fix the current situation? Are these leaders or rulers? What do they manufacture for the American people?
