Did you listen to Newt’s speech? Do you understand his remarks about prizes?
Thank you for mentioning the prizes. Of course nobody reads that far, they just want to make fun of someone who wants to go to the moon because it’s such a “waste.” That’s exactly what a liberal would say. Forget about unleashing the ingenuity and genius of the American people.
Nobody remembers that Lindberg flew across the Atlantic to win the $25,000 Orteig Prize. Better to just listen to the RINOS and their small minds as they mock any inspirational idea.
And just whose pocket would the prize come from? If it were worth going there there wouldn be any need for taxpayer funded incentives. Corporations would be feverishly working to get there and make a profit. I ask again, What raw material is worth $1,783,000 an ounce.
You space cheerleaders can cheer all you want as long as it's YOUR money you're spending.
