I'm not seeing the "best thing" aspect right now ...
Best in that it's giving $2.x billion to starship, which will make SLS obsolete by the time Artemis III flys in 2026.  SS will have flown by then maybe dozens of times.  Unless it fails, and I seriously don't think it will.  It's complex, but not impossible.

this is less than a mile from my daughter's place in Lincoln

Sunken Gardens

It doesn't look like that in the winter and it's not Atlanta, but it's nice.

The Sunken Gardens was constructed during the winter of 1930-31 in Lincoln, Nebraska. It is the only garden in Nebraska listed in the National Geographic Guide to Public Gardens 300 Best Gardens to Visit in the United States and Canada.

Wait so your daughter lives in Lincoln but you're still stuck in Iowa?

Or wait, she's stuck in Lincoln and you won't let her live the good life in Iowa?

Y'all should all just go move in with your brother.  Apparently he's the only smart one. 

(also those gardens are really beautiful)

They won't let me give blood anymore. The burnt orange color scares the hell out of the doctors.

brother doesn't have a basement or a guest house in Colleyville

I did interview for a job in Lincoln a year or so ago, but they decided not to fill the position (probably lack of decent applicants)

Iowa is a good life and alot like Heaven, but the winters aren't perfect

Yeah, let's keep those 20-somethings deep in debt so that they can't contribute to the actual economy!!!!

if it's a great idea, why not just eliminate all the debt in the US?

just wipe the slate clean and start from scratch

Ahh, the biblical approach, good thinking. 

(This is not a policy I endorse, though I am also impressed at the work folks do to muster outrage over it. Sign of our times, I suppose)

Disagreement isn't always outrage, you know.
