Don’t pay any attention to the likes of Martha Adams. A one-way
mission is perhaps the best we can manage anyway, so the old and the
dying should be the ones given that public funded one-way ticket to
ride. Another option is for those on death row that obviously have
little if anything to lose (Texas seems to have more than their fair
share), whereas in either case we'd pay their next of kin a few
million, and let it go at that, as representing their final debt paid
to society.

If we’re lucky, a few subsequent robotic deployed payloads of O2, beer
and pizza could follow their arrival onto that physically dark and
nasty surface of Selene, their final supplies spiked with a Kavorkian
cocktail so that no unnecessary pain or suffering would ever take
place. Come to think about it, perhaps an old fart like Jack Kavorkian
himself should go, along with our botoxin injected GW Bush and his
trusty *** Cheney that’s an artificially sustained heartbeat away
from death anyway.

If we play our cards right, with sufficient bribes or if need be black
ops, we could even open up a few more of those republican held seats.
