MessageWe aren't sure that there is any gain to us funding research in the Space Station. While it is undoubtedly a worthwhile cause, it has to be asked whether spending taxpayers money is justified when it does not return an obvious benefit to them.

MessageThe space station is the first step in the expansion of the Terran people beyond the planet. Undoubtedly there will come a day when there are simply too many Terrans for Terra to support, and some will have to find a new planet to reside on. Admittedly this will be far in the future, but there are still current-day benefits: our scientific understanding of space, zero gravity, orbits, etc. will increase; space travel could become a form of tourism; airplane-like vehicles that momentarily fly on the edges of the atmosphere such so that they orbit Terra will decrease travel times immensely; and many other advances. Just the two latter scenarios could easily pay back the money the taxpayers will spend.

Messagewhile we do believe such innovations would be available to us should the ISA achieve anything, we are prepared to accept that it is probably best to be at the vanguard of these achievements.

    Random fact: It is not allowed to call more than 5 elections in 5 game years in a nation. The default sanction for a player persisting in the early election tactic will be a seat reset.
