Why should humans continue on..?
What is the point of space colonization..?
Too difficult..!
Too dependant on oil..!
Sort out the problems on earth first..!
When do we start..?
No air to breathe..!
Takes too much energy to get there..!
Space is incredible hostile to life..!
Costs are too high, we'll need the money for other things, social security etc..!
Are we going to be less fragile on some rock other than earth..?
Perhaps the fact that our development possibilities cannot be fulfilled on earth is a good thing..?
