Many proponents of Statism assert that the State is needed to fund aspects of the economy that would never otherwise get funded. One such boondoggle is the space program. They say that without the State who would invest millions into constructing rockets and manned space missions to explore ways to colonize and inhabit other planets? They say that humans need to explore other planets to thrive because we are destroying the rainforests, acidifying our oceans, and polluting our air. Without eliminating Statism and the belief in authority it matters not which planet, solar system, or galaxy we colonize. If we do not recognize the inherent immorality of Statism our flawed ideologies will follow us like a pestilent plague. The deadliest entity to threaten the future of humankind is the State via democide and all the brutal wars waged between nation States to the detriment of the productive and industrious. Seeking to solve one’s problems without attending to one’s defective moral code is trying to move the statue by pushing the shadow.
