The same could be said of welfare, food stamps, Medicaid, corporate bailouts, COVID stimulus, student loans and all other government entitlement programs.
All the money is spent in the U.S., so it's great for the economy!
NO!
Government spending to "boost the economy" is a stupid, socialist argument whether it's for welfare or NASA, food stamps or the military, student loans or foreign aid that's "spent on American weapons".
Great post.
There are some NASA fanboys around here who think everyone else should pay for their NASA communities to continue to live in the style to which they have become accustomed.
Welfare is welfare—no matter who gets it.
We are getting ripped off—and then they howl in pain and call us stupid and morons and anti-science when we call them out for it...
Science is no longer a priest-hood.
No more free rides.
