Hey, if I only got almost all of the good ones, that must mean that there are a few left that I haven't seen. Please post them.

Guys, guys! How are we going to pay for our adventures on Mars?

How did we pay for Mercury, Gemini, and Apollo? Yes, it would be taxes, but it's sure a lot better than funding the stupid waste of money otherwise known as the Obama Administration with its worthless "Stimulus Packages" and other such crap. The cost of using SpaceX to send 15 missions to Mars per year would be 1.25 Billion USD or one fourth of the previous budget for the shuttle program. It would be preferable to have it privately financed, but if anything is worth using taxpayer money on, it's roads.

If it were to be that billionaires and private businesses wanted to finance everything to do with the exploration and colonization of Mars, I'd be all for it. It is preferable not to use taxpayer money, but compared to almost everything else taxpayer money is spent on, the opening up of a new frontier to be inhabited is a far nobler goal than wasting it on bureaucracies that do nothing.

At that time our economy was in much better shape than it is now. So the question still stands.;

Okay, after Obama's out of office and we get a mildly competent president and congress in office to do economic damage control for a while perhaps the economy can start to improve. But then again, the more we wait the less will be done. There are loads of worthless bureaucracies that need no funding or existence, cut them, provide the funds to the purpose of space colonization.

Otherwise, somehow convince gas company executives that dinosaurs lived on Mars and get them to send people out there.

As to Obama existing the scene from your keyboard to God's monitor.

Or let the Chinese get a jump on us and it is the Space Race all over again. If the Chinese get a start toward Mars it will prove conclusively that there is a Chinese ins NASA's armor.

There's not just a Chinese in NASA's armor, but it was armor made by the same character who made the Emperor's new clothes. NASA isn't about exploring space anymore but just about spending money. They need to be either completely reformed or replaced by private companies like SpaceX.
