Hehe....an International Space Program.

Germany: Hey you French pussies, we should name the ship "Adolf"!
France: Piss off, I say we name it "Napoleon"!
Russia: No, we name it ze Stalin!
US: No, lets name it freedom.

US: "Hey why do we have to spend our taxpayers money on building a rocket when Iraq doesn't have to?"
Iraq: "Thats because you're all heretics!"
US: "Go back to killing kids and feeding them to Allah."
China: "Hey can I reduce my budget too?"
Russia: "Hey thats no fair!"
Germany: "What? So China only has to contribute $400M, while I have to contribute $900M?"
Ethiopia: "Does that mean I also have to contribute money? I'd prefer to spend my money on AK47s, you see!"

Germany: "Hey, why should German pilots risk their lives to explore the moon? Why not have some Americans risk THEIR lives?"
Russia: "Because we only have room for 2 people on this journey to the moon!"
Germany: "But why us?"
US: "Because we voted!"
Germany: "But I didn't vote!"

I say privatise space travel....let companies risk their necks, not taxpayers. Why should taxpayers support a venture that has a high chance of failure?

Ideological loyalty is the act of giving your soul to a vague concept, to be manipulated by people smarter than you.
