So basically you are proposing to forcedly seize money from 0,01% of the population to fulfill your view of a multi planetary future for human kind. I don’t see that very ethical or appropriate to be honest.

That’s why space exploration needs to be a private endeavor or at least financed publicly but only via optional taxing.
