The U.S should challenge other nations to match us with 10 % of their military budgets for the colonization of Mars.

The building of new carriers by China for protecting their hunks of rock in the South China Sea; Russia with its nuclear war making upgrades; the U.S forced to match - what is the eventual outcome of this process? If they match 10 percent of their military budget for the colonization of Mars, then we should offer to go 20 percent. Someone needs to be visionary enough to change the direction humanity is headed, and investing on leaving this planet is a win/win for life's and humanity's continued existence.
