Expenses as a priority

 

I would argue that 90% of what we see or read in the media is distraction. Human suffering, deprivation, and moral depravity are real problems that need to be addressed. Suffering will always be an issue because people will often make foolish decisions that negatively impact themselves and others. But do we really need to be spending multiple billions of dollars on space exploration, military budgets, and political manipulation when there is so much good that could be done instead?

Caring for those in need and creating a better world ought to take precedence over personal comfort and hobbies.
