Establishing a standard time for the moon is necessary for the new era of lunar exploration. The moon, in June is stuck at high noon

How about just do what Science Fiction authors have done for decades - use GMT as the time zone for the Moon and other space activities. I honestly don't understand the reason this is so hard.

Probably right. However, all US time zones are listed as UTC-<hours>. I was thinking Daylight Savings Time shifts, which of course make no sense on the Moon or in space in general. The real fun will begin when we start colonizing Mars with it's longer day and the asteroids, which vary in their spin rate.

Just the next step on our (USA) relentless march towards socialism.

Dude, we've been on that march and have accomplished much with socialism since the inception of the country.

|
|
|
Dude… I use the actual definition of Socialism - “public or collective ownership of the means of production and the central planning of the economy”. I have no idea what definition you might be using…
We agree that the US has accomplished much since its inception. Since the US is closer to free market capitalism than socialism - capitalism must be the reason, right?
|
|
|
|
|
No, it's not the only reason. The U.S. has always been a combination of capitalism and socialism, even by your definition.
Today, out of control, unregulated capitalism and corporate greed is creating a society that depends more and more on social support to survive.

We’ll have to agree to disagree and leave it at that - otherwise we risk getting too political for CP forums.

What we have is not socialism, as there is no public or collective ownership. What we have is much closer to an oligarchy, as the rich people will have much more say in what goes on in those companies, and the distribution of any profits, than the government ever will. Always remember, our current government has been paid for.

As you said, it's an active partnership between those companies and government, and both political parties play the game. Each with different motives but desire the same outcome.
