Thing is, we have the technology needed to get to Mars. It's basically just an upscaled version of the Lunar missions. But we don't yet know how people will cope with the trip, especially since it will be one-way only.
It's really just a question of will and funding. But since America is currently completely obsessed with profit and riddled with an anti-science attitude, I doubt that funding will come through any time soon.
This is more or less my view on an issue like this.
