Some items do not cost as much as people like to think and some items more.
A spacecraft. Most will say....it cost millions and it was just shot into space......the money could have been used here on Earth to help people.
What was really the cost.....plastic.....metal......glasss....time.....labor.....fuel.
The money is still here on Earth in the pockets of people to pay their bills. if the spacecraft was scraped it would bring little in money. The fuel to make the craft is lost,labor and time is lost. But these things are waste in the efforts to make a living anyway. The money just shifted around from one to another. Tax payers money was used and tax payers made the money working on it. Where it really cost is when monies are going to another country for labor. But that money is returned in purchases from this country. We only need to export more than we import by new ideas and better selling.
In this world people focus on impressions and ideas leaving logic to its own place of solitude.
