I don't understand our obsession with the planet Mars. Everywhere I look, there is an article about the latest mission of a multibillion dollar Perseverance Rover vehicle off-roading on Mars.
Perseverance Rover landed on Mars back on February 18, 2021. Scientists are going gaga with the images this spacecraft is sending back.
Funny, we have the money and technology to send a vehicle into outer space, but not enough money to fix the potholes on our local streets, feed the hungry and house the homeless.
There is no excuse for children to go hungry in this country. Yet it happens, every day, in every community.
