If there was a large asteroid heading toward the earth, and we had a chance to blow it up?
Glen D asked:
before destroying the earth, which of following would Republican Party leadership say, to stop funding of a massive program to save the earth?
A. It would cost too many trillions of dollars, not worth it
B. Not worth it, it would burden future generations with massive debt
C. It would promote big government and both Socialism and Fascism at the same time.
D. The national government must not deal with the problem, there are better state or local solutions
E. Since there is only 50% chance that Earth will be destroyed, do not worry about it.
F. No problem, we’re glad that final destruction has come, we’re ready to die.
G. (Could it be all of the Above, for most Conservatives?)
Of course this is not a IF’ question, it’s very likely that someday a large meteor will hit the eart.
It’s also true that blowing it up in space will create hundreds of smaller particles, but the althernative would be worse.
If blown up far enough out, many of the smaller parts, would not hit the earth, better than the whole thing wiping us all out, right?
Taking care of life on earth should be first priority, not taxation or debts.
You cannot put a dollar tag on one live, yet alone 300,000,000 or 7 trillion lives.
Right?
Solutions, or excuses?
WE need solutions, for all earthly and and national health problems, not excuses, right?

i hope B cause it is the most ironic
edit; this is not a hypothetical question there is actually an asteroid which will in 80 years or something has a very high chance of hitting us, luckily in 20 years time we will be able to change it’s orbit so it won’t on the next pass by

Normally, I don’t like if questions, because there are no correct answers, but this one I am very interested in seeing the answer.
Personally, I think they are going to attack you and say how your question is implausable. But there will not be an answer for this at all.
Star for you my friend. . .

Well, the Republicans would have to blow it up. Because the Eco-feminists of the Democratic party would be protesting the use of a weapon in space or singing songs in a circle hoping mother earth would make the asteroid feel better and go away.

blowing it up might work for hollywood, unfortunately reality works differently, better to nudge it into a different orbit!

I love the left, when they demonstrate just how completely and totally ignorant they are.

Wouldnt blowing it up cause 1000s of pieces of it to hit earth all over causing shit loads of damage anyways?
debt solutions
They would be all for it if Halliburton got the contracts for it.

Isn’t it the democrats who don’t want us to have weapons of that size? Republicans are usually for spending towards the military. I hope you feel better now that you’ve only made yourself look ignorant.
debt solutions
It doesn’t mater what the republicans would do because democrats would destroy the country first.

H. Very bad idea because the huge pieces would still be heading for us but now it would be like buckshot instead of just one bullet and cause even more damage.
