An interesting opinion. No data to support it, but interesting.
You know it and I know it and you ain't gonna change the fact.
I don't know it, because it's not a fact. It is your (entirely unsupported) opinion.
I have no problem with using private contractors to do so but we don't have to worry now because Obummer destroyed any chance of it happening within the next two decades...
Did you not read the NYT article at the link? Under the President's plan NASA is going to get out of the manned spaceflight business. That is what the new plan does. That means no more "space program"; NASA will charter privately-owned launch vehicles (and in time spacecraft and moonbases, etc.) for space purposes in the same way that the Feds charter privately-owned aircraft for government purposes today. They'll charter them first from the Russians as they do now; a few years from now, domestic commercial carriers will come on line for charters and NASA will taper off its business with the Rooskies.
Get it? From now on, the rockets NASA uses will not be NASA rockets; they will be privately-owned rockets. NASA can go back to being a policy/R&D agency, which is what it was created to be.
The next man to step on the moon will be an employee of a private corporation, not a NASA astronaut. And that is as it should be.
Unsupported? Really?
Ever heard of the "Treaty on Principles Governing the Activities of States in the Exploration and Use of Outer Space, including the Moon and Other Celestial Bodies"? Article VI of the Treaty deals with international responsibility, stating that "the activities of non-governmental entities in outer space, including the moon and other celestial bodies, shall require authorization and continuing supervision by the appropriate State Party to the Treaty" and that States Parties shall bear international responsibility for national space activities whether carried out by governmental or non-governmental entities
Any questions?
