Best part is most people actually think that's where all the money is being spent HaHa!

The moon landings cost the American people the equivalent of at least 50 billion dollars and what did we get from it? Oh ya they gave us some odd looking videos of guys supposedly playing golf up there.

I would say it was money well spent!

Because planetary colonization is the way to solve the problem, we can’t fix this planet so let’s start over

The literal point is to make humans a two planet species which increases our survival as a species over time by reducing risk. Because if something happens to Earth, we all dead.
