You sir, nailed every concern on the head. Same with fighting drugs, climate control, that shit eats money like there is no tomorrow and no effect.

Eventually when technologically we will be advanced this will/can be prevented.

Same with toilets, few hundred years ago we had none in apartments, now without one someone might die :D

I might be one of these people who would make whatever means to see meteor after warnings/announcements to go in underground bases(aka evangelion).
