It takes only 2 seconds to say “Stop.”
It takes only 2 minutes to write a memo saying “Stop.”

But it also takes an infinite amount of courage to say “We (the government) were wrong.”

Because of the way the government works no government minion can legally do this, no not even Obama.

It’s not that easy. The money is already committed, contracts are signed, workers are hired, etc. To simply say “Stop” in the middle of such a project would mean even more expenses in legal fees and so forth stemming from breaking the contracts. In addition, the ripple effect from suddenly halting a long-term construction project would be huge.

Congress and the POTUS spent the money, but they made NASA take the fall.
