maybe a reason is using that money to give people Healthcare and free education. You know, like, things that actually matter. Why do we need to go to mars?

The US will never establish any form of 'free' or inexpensive healthcare. US politicians are ideologically opposed to the idea. The US ranks at number 37 in the world in English and Maths achievement, and their politicians don't care.
