The adminstration has set a goal of getting to a balanced budget within five years, which signifies a further increse in indebtedness. The debt should be a nine billion debt by the five year target date at a minimum. This increases the interest payment to almost a 3/4 trillion. Until our budget priorities are straightened out, it seems a poor move to escape the gravity of earth and head for space. There are problems here on earth, including our homongous debt.
