The United States does not need to spend more money that it doesn’t have to create a new branch of the military. It already has a space program that has accomplished amazing feats of international cooperation that we can be proud of as a country.
Militarizing outer space by creating a “Space Force” is morally wrong when there are citizens of the United States who lack food, housing, basic health care and education. Let’s start by taking care of our citizens instead of creating new ways to start wars.
