How? If I do what is asked of me and no more, then go spend my free time with my family, or go hiking, or do a million other fun, fulling things I could enjoy. How is that destructive?

Sorry I read the first post in the wrong context, your right it was welfare. That being said, I do think that taking 1 persons experience and using that as an argument against welfare is, just dumb.

What are you talking about? How did you get all of that from 'Maybe I'm just pampered'. I think he means, I wouldn't order from a restaurant I have never heard from or been to in person. I don't know anyone, at all,

You're overthinking this a little. If Monsanto comes up with a new weedkiller, they have to prove that its safe for humans before its put into use. It has nothing to do with restaurants. Obviously stuff would be grandfathered in as wel

We have come a long way from the late 90s and early 2000s when ISS was built. If NASA was properly funded I'm sure it would also be able to build a competing station cheaper/easier as well. ISS and NASA paved the way for SpaceX. S
