The hope is that this is a task that people are setting up for the greater good of mankind, to further our knowledge of the solar system and to one day make the world a better place but frankly I don't believe that for one second. Look at how popular real life TV is, how people sit glued to watch total nobodies doing nothing of any real interest.

How engrossed will people be in watching people who have no escape, who will live the rest of their lives as nothing more than performing monkeys and just how much will TV networks, newspapers and media in general pay people to have access to the thoughts and opinions of these people as well as anyone who happens to know them.
