        Republicans historically so not want to use their tax money to provide for the “undeserving” both locally and globally.

        If he’s not opposed to his tax dollars being used in such a way, and instead opposes technology advances as a whole, one wonders why he would be in a technology community

            Yes if you change words in a sentence you can make sentences mean different things. That is indeed how words work.

                It isn’t at all, though, unless you change the words until the topic is unrecognizable.

                Paying taxes so the poor can have things and “talk about fossil fuels” are entirely different things.

          Replace references to space and internet with nature and oil drilling and your arguments sound indistinguishable from republicans.
