Read Article II Section 2 Clause 2. The Louisiana Purchase was also a treaty.
Who would we be making a treaty with as part of colonizing the moon?
I guess destroying entrepreneurial spirit is conservative.
You think refraining from spending taxpayer money is “destroying entrepreneurial spirit”? Have the decency to not call yourself a conservative.
Fine, let’s fire everyone in the military. Smart.
The military is authorized by the Constitution. Have you ever read it?
Sorry, due to the vacuousness of your statement, I assumed you meant refraining from all spending.
What's vacuous is your identification of not spending taxpayer dollars on a moon base as "destroying entrepreneurial spirit."
>>Who would we be making a treaty with as part of colonizing the moon?
So back to my original point which was INVESTING in new territory. The Louisiana Purchase was that investment. I’m glad you agree with my analysis of the Constitution.

In another post, I stated that even Lewis and Clark were paid for by taxpayer dollars. The people and companies followed. The government frequently pays people to put their lives on the line, whether explorers or the military. Space is a frontier, just like the frontier that was the American West only 200 years ago.
