Michelle Obama: Former US first lady says she has 'low-grade depression'. Is she mildly depressed in the $8 million dollar place in DC or the $12 million dollar place in Martha's Vineyard?

    Hey, they only happily jumped at the opportunity to literally eat away our space civilization and left us on the brink of energetic collapse right before peak oil. How can one be mad?

      -$750k is the lifetime budget impact of an average black in US. Multiply it by 42 million and you get 31 trillion dollars. That is 31000 Space Shuttle or 500000 new Falcon 9 launches.

      Assuming that

      The cost of the International Space Station (ISS) is approximately 150 billion USD (15000 crores USD).1

      With that much money you could literally give EVERY SINGLE COUNTRY IN THE WORLD their own ISS program from start to finish and you'd still have leftovers.

      If you take the largest 20 kg/kw numbers here, you could build almost 200 4GW space power plants in LEO, which is the equivalent output of 35 Three Gorges Dams IN SPACE.

      I'm not even factoring foreign aid, gay useless wars, other migrants, bank bailouts in the equation. Your money is spent frivolously.

        First and foremost it should recognize who its actual citizens are

        100-300k paycheck to repatriate into Africa is an acceptable loss

          His case is that it would benefit the whole world if they did that.

            The practicalities are not that important. It's always easy to see problems instead of solutions.
            As Hadza said, you pay them to leave. It must be made very easy and attractive.

            Being born on American soil does not make someone an American citizen. You must be a free white man of good character like the founding fathers intended.
