Isn’t it interesting that this comment comes one week after the last shuttle has landed.
This announcement could have been made jointly in 2018 or even later.
I cannot believe the poor level of leadership this nation has had.
Super collider gone. Space program gone. Half or Navy gone. The F22 cancelled. The F35 on the chopping block. The rest of the military on the chopping block. Manufacturing jobs gone. Other jobs being outsourced. Our borders wide open. Foreign nationals dictating how we conduct our business.
Our nation being bankrupted so we can never pursue these goals again.
It’s quite difficult to take in what Washington has done, and not be the slightest bit negative about our nation’s future.
This isn’t just mis-management, it’s a concerted effort!
All empires end, usually by suicide.
BTW, how much money did we put into this thing and they're just going to set it all on fire?!
Your good comment touched a nerve. All those things you have mentioned are what is known and I am sure there is more going on that would be cause for alarm. Even though they are financed by the government, they are wealth generators acting for the economy what a electrical plant does for a region’s energy. The space program for instance, created technology development in the major corporations that have since led to other innovations and products that have added greatly to the economy. Even though it originates from our tax dollar, the dividends from that spending have been huge. The Obamunists see them for the benefit to the economy and are, in my opinion, systematically taking them out so it brings our economy down like one would dismantle the electrical grid.
The government depends on the taxes from the wealth production in the private sector. What kind of transformation do we get when the private sector is so weakened that the flow of money cannot sustain jobs or meet the tax expectations needed to keep the government working?
