Musk on Mars

"So, the President’s adviser for spending and common sense wants to put a flag on Mars. May I suggest that the billions and billions of dollars wasted on such a stupid project would be far better spent on supplying Yemen and Somalia with drinkable water, and being able to raise crops to fend of starvation. Money could also be channelled to medical research to end a cure for any, or many, of our dreaded diseases. 

No one will give a tinker’s curse about whether it is possible to grow carrots in outer space. Firstly, who is going to harvest them, and, secondly, who is going to eat them? Walk in the real world, Mr Musk. The one you separated from many years ago!"
