So if the Enemy is Under-employment, together with unemployment, Then the solution is Jobs. As Robots take over, there are fewer economically stimulated jobs. So I suggest changing the mission of NASA.
NASA jobs, today, are aimed at efficiency. I suggest the mission of NASA be expanded to include colonizing the moon, Mars, etc. Jobs can be created, and wages paid from the increasing budget, for young people to train/learn to become astronauts. NASA shall assess the unemployment levels in various regions, and create jobs at levels of challenge, that will be commensurate with the unemployed and underemployed population potentials. The Final Decision to actually go, can be delayed, until a decision has to actually be made. Many of the NASA jobs woud be centered on traveling to outer space. Space is the Challenge, not fighting fellow Earthlings.
The Missions to the Moon and Mars, shall be staffed with representative components of the unemployed youth, in various sections of the country. The wages shall be the going wages, and work 40 Hours per week.
A new section of NASA will be Job Creation. More jobs will be created to reduce unemployment and under-employment, aimed at , the various education and skill levels of unemployed youth.
Federal Laws can be written for the expanded role of NASA.

There is some indication that recruits for terrorism organizations, are from the ranks of unemployed youth and under-employed youth.
""We cannot kill our way out of this war,” she said. “We need in the medium to longer term to go after the root causes that lead people to join these groups, whether it’s a lack of opportunity for jobs….”Advertisement
Matthews countered that this isn’t a viable strategy since “There’s always going to be poor Muslims, and as long as there are poor Muslims, the trumpet’s blowing and they’ll join,” to which Harf replied that “We can work with countries around the world to help improve their governance. We can help them build their economies so they can have job opportunities for these people.”
Coming just as the White House outlines a new set of nonmilitary plans to fight groups like ISIS, Harf’s comments were blasted by conservative critics as, in the words of Rush Limbaugh, a “left-wing syrupy embarrassingly "
Conservatives Are Blasting the Obama Administration for Saying Unemployment Causes Terrorism. They’re Kind of Right.

Terrorism caused by youth Unemployment.
What is being done to address the root causes of Terrorism?
"...unemployment among Muslim youth is estimated by Eurostat to be 40 percent in France and 50 percent in Germany. Can there be any doubt that financial desperation—not religion—is handing terrorist recruiters a huge pool of potential foot soldiers? To cut recruiters off at the knees, the United States must encourage its allies to commit to new strategies to integrate Muslim youth into their economies. According to Brandeis professor Andrew Hahn, “Studies demonstrate that entrepreneurship education programs are among the few strategies that work during periods of massive youth joblessness,”
We blame religion and ignore the economic underpinnings of terrorism at our peril. We can fight back with entrepreneurship education, and initiatives that will encourage a worldwide entrepreneurial eco-system to take root, instead of poisonous ideologies."

An Unlimited number of jobs can be created at all imaginable skill and education levels, for exploration and colonization of the Moon, Mars, etc.
