The problem with money is that you don't solve all sorts of issues by throwing money at it (you need small funds and TIME to find a solution and then perhaps that solution requires a lot of money), and in some cases where it needs money you don't have people willing to spend money on it.

In general that means that "Why are you spending money on this when there is still AIDS/Cancer?" statements are dumb and counter-productive. Some of our best solutions to important problems have been discovered as a side-effect from pursuing "silly" projects like the LHC, or going to the moon or discovering more effective ways of changing a persons status from "alive" to "dead".

The point of virtually all the posters here is that no matter how hard you try you cannot completely cure hunger and poverty etc, and that virtually all technology begins from theoretical science which is why the LHC is money well spent and crucial to advancing civilization.

And why are you picking on the LHC, 4 billion is not alot of money, complain about defense budgets or corruption, or the cost of sports entertainment.

Everyday examples of particle accelerators are those found in television sets and X-ray generators. Low-energy accelerators such as cathode ray tubes and X-ray generators use a single pair of electrodes with a DC voltage of a few thousand volts between them. In an X-ray generator, the target itself is one of the electrodes. A low-energy particle accelerator called an ion implanter is used in the manufacture of integrated circuits.

There should be a list of problems that we, humanity should attempt to solve. It starts like this:

1. Stop people dying from lack of water/clean water.
2. Feed the starving.
3. Stop people from dying of entirely preventable diseases like TB,flu,diarrhoea etc.
.
.
345. Go back to the moon.

894. Build a giant particle accelerator to answer a question most people don't care about much less understand so some scientists can go 'Oh yeah, thats why we have mass then.'

To be fair the LHC cost a quarter of the spending increase needed to reach all of the MDG's per year (+18b globally).

It's hard to see what, if any, pressing need the LHC meets.

Taking steps to reduce global poverty OTOH would make the world a safer place.

To be fair defence spending in particular areas looks like a far bigger waste of money at present time... although the way Russia are going maybe in a few years having a head start on bleeding their economy to death with another arms race will seem like a good thing.

I'll tell you exactly where I draw the line.

Big problems require big solutions, from the government of countries. Once you eliminate water and food poverty, a country can maybe begin to stand on its feet and take its place in the world, freeing it from dependance on charity from other nations.

I re-iterate my point: If a govt wants to do things with lots of money, there are priorities above chasing around after some hypothetical "God particle".

1. You say people die from lack of water, tell me OP what are you doing to not waste water? Name me directly the things you do.

2. Tell me what you do with the food you dont want? Do you trash it or do you give it to the poor people of your city?

3. And this is an example that you dont have an idea of what your talking about. First of all LHC experiment and its results has direct effects on medicine science. And besides there are already people that doing experiments and are trying to find cures for diseases...

You put LHC on 894 by saying that people dont care and have no idea of how it works.
Tell me OP do you know the physics behind your computer? No, but you use it. Do you how television works? No, but you use it. Do you even know how we ended up creating those things? No, but you use them. See where i am going?

LHC might also lead on new forms of energy.
Tell me if oil, coal and other resources that are limited, disappear tomorrow what are you gonna do?
You wont have elecricity, people in hospitals will start dieing, no electricity means no drinkable water at homes. No oil means no more cars, no planes, nothing. People wont be able to go anywhere. Resources on their location will wear out quickly they will start to fight for them. Do i need to say more?

LHC has effects on other sciences too, including computer science. For example results from there might lead on faster computers.

I didnt see you make a post about how invseting in military equipment is a waste of money... someone might also say that you, playing on your computer, is a waste of energy. You can go read a book or go out for a walk. But you dont, you dont care, you just want to play games, or post crap on forums.

Science is not a waste of money ignorant fool. Please go crawl back in your hole.

Why your list is upside down?

I don't see why should we rich countries care about poor countries and their problems? We have evolved from Africa as we moved to northen hemisphere and settled middle-east and eventually europe. We started making progress while people in these "poor" countries stayed in jungle and didn't evolve.

I say we should nuke or use other weapons to wipe out that human population to ensure thriving and surviving of our species. Going to Mars and Moon is one of the major steps in this plan.

Sorry if I don't share your point of humanitarian view of world. Mine is different than yours, just accept that.

You don't fix Africa by throwing money at it. You throw money at something and you create corruption. Africa can only be solved by Africans themselves

---

If the Africans fix their problems themselves, then we are doomed, because one of their biggest problems is us.

That's why we throw money at them, Sherlock.

---

then good thing we have the ability to carpet bomb them in such a way that they wont even see it as the bombs are droping..........hey i think i just found a solution to the starving people in africa

There should be a list of problems that we, humanity should attempt to solve. It starts like this:

1. Stop people dying from lack of water/clean water.
2. Feed the starving.
3. Stop people from dying of entirely preventable diseases like TB,flu,diarrhoea etc.

894. Build a giant particle accelerator to answer a question most people don't care about much less understand so some scientists can go 'Oh yeah, thats why we have mass then.'

Nature will always find a balance. Cure one disease and another will take it's place, (AIDS, MRSA etc). We have cured so many "incurable" diseases over the past decade or so that nature has rewarded us with new superbugs that will prevent the population from expanding to uncontrollable levels.

Preventing the population cull by nature will only serve to spark another new super virus to ensure the cull continues on schedule. You can't tell mum how to run her world, she's been doing it a lot longer than we have

The problem here is money, not the LHC. If we get rid of money the issue is solved.
