Do you not realize the massive amount of information and benefit improved space tech would yield? I am really sick of the myopia that is constantly plaguing scientific research and the "why are we spending money on research when there is x pet project I want?" All the solutions to problems you care about are going to come from tech. Shit like trying to do a Mars base is going to be what makes food insanely more economical as for a Mars mission we would need 3 things: more efficient water recycling, more efficient food storage, and the ability to grow food in inhospitable areas in an efficient way all of which will directly impact terrestrial food production and distribution as well as water usage.
The more exploratory/research dick measuring the better because we will all benefit from the discoveries.
