The main reason for lack of NASA funding is that the government has other priorities - the military, you know, and other items. According to this, about 50% of non-necessary spending is used up on "defense." I'm pretty sure that can be cut down substantially and sent over to NASA. I'm currently frustrated that we haven't landed a man/woman on Mars yet, when we should have done it a decade after the moon landing.
Since the 1960's sexual revolution the nation has been divided into two parts.
One is the side which kills illegimate babies with abortion, and then goes on to work and marry.
The other side opts for the nbenefits of Welfare in an environment that is shameless and enabling.
The $600 Billion dollars in the 2012 Budget for Welfare matches the $600 Billiobn dollars spent for Military Defense against a growing and diverse enemy.
Welfare is estimated to reach a cost of $10.5 Trillion dollars over the next decade.
Add the cost of Criminal Justuice necessary because 70% of all vilent crime and social problems in America are caused by people raisedbySingle Mothers, and one can see the hand writing on the wall,...
... or not??
