A plan to create a public good that would serve all people equally—no matter how desperate the need, no matter how sturdy the plan—must be parsed with the jaundiced eye of a bemused uncle surveying a child's lemonade stand.

Pissing away money on a Space Force is a rubber stamp.
We're going to have a Space Force because oatmeal-brained Donald Trump, a game show host who bankrupted a casino, sludged it out of his mouth-hole, and now we have to have it, because in American neoconservatism if the king says "build me a 5-story mouse," you build the mouse.
Exponentially increasing wasteful corruption while talking loudly about curbing it is "conservatism," quite traditional.

Maintaining this status quo is "centrism," and is very wise.

Any attempt to rein it in and actually serve the public good is "radical leftism," SO dangerous
We're on the brink of climate emergency and instead of throwing all our resources into efforts that will preserve literally all existing wealth and value, we're going to fart away more money than the brain can grasp on something I can only imagine is "the Air Force, but higher."
