Personally I think we should get rid of politicians and let the scientists and other more worthy people be in charge of society!
Wouldn't it be more fitting for the first official interstellar visitor to be welcomed by the likes of Neil deGrasse Tyson or Michio Kaku than by Trump and his cohorts?
I'm not sure because some scientists can be very cold about human life and if they were the ones ruling the world we might end up with laws allowing human beings to be forced into being guinea pigs and experimented on without any regard for their wellbeing.
Science does a lot of good for the world but it can also do a lot of bad and some scientists would take their research way too far if they could because they have no sense of humanity.
What we REALLY need more than anything are leaders who really care about their country and their people. Not these corrupt ***holes who want to feel like God.
