Anyone else excited that we are finally seriously working on going to Mars?

It's probably a money-hoax.

USA is broke, fix the economy or it will collapse and drag the entire world down into a global depression and it's now obviously more important to travel to Mars instead... Am i the online one who can see the dilemma, the problem with this?

Keep on spending cash you don't have...

Spending the money isn't really the problem. The problem are the joke laws that the US has for taxes. Spent money is not lost, it just changes owners until it comes back to the state anyway. That is if there weren't so many giant holes for rich people to hoard money without giving back a dime.
