Somewhere along the way I have come to appreciate that as a society we need to
optimize better for psychological, financial and physical wellbeing of people
prioritized by proximity: employees, community, humanity. It will definitely
slow down innovation. We might go to Mars 20yrs late, no self driving cars for
10 more yrs, walk around the city some more before electric scooter land etc.

Of course it is in conflict with innovations in humanity impacting products
like cure for cancer, malaria etc. It would be nice to figure out a solution
that provides a good balance.

>It will definitely slow down innovation

It will definitely slow down innovation. Some projects / aspirations will come
off the table completely. Mars? Forget about it. All your mars money will be
treating AIDS/Malaria/Cancer/Whatever. All NASA and space exploration money
will go to feeding poor people and refugees and all manner of charitable
causes, these causes will only ever multiply ad infinitum. I think there is
really only money for one or the other. You can have a comfy easy welfare
state life, or you can explore and reach for the stars.

You can't do discount Mars, or space exploration on the cheap, you basically
can't have both. Your welfare state will make it so that you don't ever really
have enough money to actually do any kind of space exploration. Sure you can
send cheap drones locally within the solar system, but that's all space
exploration will ever be from now on.
