I can't wait to hear this...hehe
"...why don't you go back to the planet you came from?"
"Well if you people didn't come with your spaceships and stole us from our galaxy, we wouldn't HAVE this problem! Go back to YOUR planet!"

Tell me why its worth our resources to send manned missions to mars/ other planets. Prove to me that the billions of dollars that NASA receives in funding every year wouldn't be better suited for medical research or alternative energy research. Only then can I not feel that NASA is anything more than an example of government waste.

Think about it. If you had a telescope like the one I have, and if you went to some of the places I go to look at the stars you would see what I'm talking about. I go where there are no city lights and it's beautiful. You can see everything. You can actually see a few thousand of the billions of stars in our galaxy alone.
20 bucks if the Cold War was still going on as we speak, I'll bet we would either have been on Mars or on our way there within the next few years.
ETA: lol @ the "tearing shyt up" comment. lol

You know...if anyone ever paid attention and saw 2010, Man was trying to get to JUPITER and was only slowed down by Cold War activities on Earth....maybe it's time we picked a fight without fighting again....heh!
