Why not privatize that $600 million-per-flight waste of taxdollars? For more information about how much money could be saved, and how easily we could bring about the changes (much to the chagrin of a couple of bloated contractors and the NASA bureaucrats who don't want you knowing that things can be done around 30 times more cheaply): http://www.spaceprojects.com/space-shuttle

Why not privatize that $600 million-per-flight waste of taxdollars? If you keep up with O'Keefe's comments, you'll know that this is in the works.

It's always incredible to me that they can launch this huge thing on a tremendous tail of fire and put it exactly where they intended to put it.
Sure, there are lots of folks who bitch about NASA and the Shuttle -- and some of it's justified.
But the bottom line is: this is an incredible thing to be able to do, and they've done it over 100 times.

Looks like we have a disrupter onboard. Ignore him.
