Shuttle launch cost $450 million

The space shuttle launched today, and it cost you and me $450 million. What's the purpose of these missions again? Has there been any dramatic changes in our lives besides Direct TV since the space program began? The U.S. has spent a few trillion dollars on the space program, yet what problems have been solved?

We still have lots of crime, enemies, financial bubbles, poor public education, a health care crisis, an empire, and on, and on, and on. What's the purpose of these missions again?
