Ah...continue to expand.
Crazy as that seems right now, it is
human history..perhaps I wasn't visionary
enough myself. To get into space, we would
have to harness huge fusion power. Otherwise
we have a silly prospect of millions of dollars
for a dead object, and 20 times that for an
astronaut plus support.
OK...we go to space.
Now, that takes a LOT of vision..heh.
But I do remember when people thought it would happen
...soon.
I had classmates that got ready for fusion
reactor work. No jobs there, lol.

If the moon has a lush vegetation, and a green pasture, and a vast ocean, (then) I would certainly guarantee you that; in 50 years, the moon will go from zero people to millions (of people) in such a short time! The problem now is that the universe is forbidding to our expansion... it is like; we are living on an island, but surrounded by an ocean of fire(!), which we would die by even going near it ,(but maybe we could just camp out there on a boat made of fire resistant material.. lol). -expansion just doesn't make sense now... maybe in the future something will happen that allow us to get there, that distant land, without too much a struggle.

Few hundred years ago, there was zero Caucasian on the New World, then, few hundred years later; there was million and millions of American people!. My point is; expansion is inevitable, people increase by numbers- spreading into spaces, consuming resources, and create a living. -If our planet kept its same size and spaces, then there will be no more places to expand, no more spaces to allow our biological need to continue its course... I propose we look for new spaces, new land... in space... or in other planet.
i dont think expansion is the real issue. yes, we are going to expand since we have overcome most of the natural barriers that restrict boundless expansion in most other species i.e predators and such. we've overcome most of natures failsafes so now we assume we can consume and exploit penalty free. we humans are socially short sighted. this is the problem.

Yes liberal short sightedness. Take it on this Labour day they are presenting social explanations of improving worker job-satisfaction; at of all factories, the GM. If we had a Sociological concept of lower job satisfaction at work; then burning the Koran in another part of the Country could be socially justified for a pressured constitution. Is the Tea party pressuring the constitution after-all?

i wasnt speaking specifically of contemporary political shortsightedness which is subjective. i was speaking about the universal human social phenomena. its illustrated numerously by game theory. we will forego long term social benefits for immediate individual gain even when the trade off has been made explicit. look at non renewable resource exploitation. you want to blame it all on liberals? go ahead but you wont be answering anything meaningful. its important that we address the elements that are relative to the human condition and not just the liberal or conservative or socialist or fascist, since its the human condition that unites us all and this is our (the human) problem. its not geographic or political.

The definition for "short-sightedness" should be "the tendency for a species to bump into a 'barrier', or 'a door that it cannot open' ". I think we (human) are just OK (not too short-sighted) because, although we always find ourselves almost bumping into a dead end (or 'barrier'); such as being at the brink of nuclear holocaust or at the brink of total-annihilation from world war, or similarly due to global-warming, we are always able to evade it. -I think we human (as a whole) is a species that is pretty short-sighted but not as much as a blind person do, such that we doesn't totally collide into a wall and died as a result.
