No, I just pointed out the jingoism evident from this line:

> You can't ask people to just eat, reproduce and die, living just above the poverty line. That is worse than poverty.

What do those line mean? Who asked people to just eat, reproduce and die? How is something worse or better than poverty I do not know.

> it would get criticized as unnecessary. That leaves out only giving money to people directly.

No where in the parent comment or on this complete conversation it has been said that expenditure on Mangalyaan is unnecessary or wasteful. In fact it is the opposite that I said on the parent comment. Where did you read this?
