A space elevator? What exactly do we need an elevator to space for? You planning on meeting someone on the top floor? Or is it so we can cheaply exploit the natural resources of the solar system? launch satelties maybe? Neither of these things are particularly good ideas IMO.
Provides jobs??!!!
Thats the best rationalization you can come up with for WASTING MILLIONS of dollars every year?! That is pretty weak. (Give me all of that money, and i gaurentee i could employ EVERY person in the country. Not just egg-heads w/ a bunch of degrees, who could have gone into other fields.)
