You guys know how we always loved science-fiction and wanted to travel around the cosmos? Well, as it turns out, we have the technology to make that happen. What I'm trying to say here, by the way, is that when I become President, I'm gonna reignite the Space Program, give NASA but-tons more funding, and hopefully, by the time my first term ends, we colonize the moon! You do know that to give NASA that much funding, you'd need to take away from what's being used for the population's needs, such as education, health, help programs for the homeless, police and judicial system, etc? You can't invest too much on space investigation, or else you'd risk not having enough funds to cover the population's needs. It's not like you're the first person to have this idea. It's just not that affordable. Before it was a more important goal because of the space race between the Unites States and Russia, as a part of the Cold War, but nowadays now that the space race ended, those resources are probably better off being spent on the population's needs.
