I see it differently. Even one thousand dollars, let alone 20 billion, which is the ballpark for expenditure on NASA for example, spent wisely, would help disadvantaged people as well as nature. Even though it is a small part of the overall US budget, it's still a lot of money.

I am not against funding NASA, not at all, but the billionaires who spend money on rockets for space tourists and the like, annoy me no end.
