Although we always had some foam loss on each launch but nothing like after the change.

That's why I used the "high quality" qualifier.

NASA BC (Before Clinton), was an outstanding quality, performance and safety driven cutting edge agency, that created so many invaluable spinoffs in technology while pumping up worthy national pride.

And we gave it away to please the Socialist left.

And none of this was Putin's fault, or even his plan, he just oversees Russia's space program, and he has a lot of customers, not just the US, it is not flashy, but satisfactory. The Russians do have some sweet engines.
