Stimulus now. Austerity later.
Nothing makes for a bigger stimulus than building the infrastructure to support asteroid mining. Who ever that does it is going to be one rich mother fucker! Can you imagine humanity with limitless resources? Whatever you believe the truth is this planet is running low on some stuff. On top of this we don't want to fuck it up anymore.
Growing the economy at 10% a year for decades is what space offers our species! Everyone will be able to have American standards this way!
Asteroid mining? Who can afford such a major project at this time? Should we just totally forsake the poor, elderly, and middle class that is hurting to mine asteroids?
