N.A.S.A- nutty astronauts screwing America. They're at it again, NASA is preparing to take another shot into the dark, using your tax money. A seven hundred million dollar shot to Pluto, a planet of ice. It's going to take the craft nine years to make the trip, they say,"if it makes it." To me this is disturbing when we can't take care of our veterans or properly outfit the fighting soldiers with what they need.
We hear all the time how tight money is. Maybe tight for the poor man. I guess if I owned a billion dollar spacecraft factory I'd be doing pretty good taking the peoples tax money for contracts that end up being a shot in the dark. Lets see now, I would get paid, the politicians would get paid but the tax payer only gets laid. Screwed for a shot into the dark mutiplied over the years, equaling the billions. Remember the star wars missile project, well the government spent billions of your tax money before they scraped the whole program. We lost on the gamble but somebody else got paid.
A shot in the dark, might as well give the money to a homeless man in the park. Super high cost, money basically lost. There's gold in those stars, lets shoot for mars. Of course we recollect, we'll never collect. Neither will the taxpayer, big profits to the betrayer.

disturbs me all the time the way our
corrupt government waste money.
The government might as well get
advice from Major Tung....I mean, if they
like wasting money and time..
Someone is always paid, and paid too much.
Tell it like it is Grady Man......
Bravo! I totally agree! I believe in space exploration when done with some common sense and for the betterment of humanity. But these agencies just make their plans according to what they get a notion to do for their own pleasures. We need a revolt against the way our government spends our taxes!
In America they just give money away but are always saying we need to raise money to help but they are loaded and then some. Money is just wasted on what they want and not the need of hungry people all around the world. i know what I would do with 700 million and it would get peoples lives back together. Clean and sober and an open kitchen to feed the hungry and the poor.
I think this is a waste of money. Knowing that we will never never never ever be able to live there anyway.
What happened to the project of the "Moom"?, and that project to Mars? What happened? Some concentration of attention is required. NASA has the least attention span in everything they do!

I so agree was watching a comentary works on the tv yesterday and it was about the national Guards and service men in the armies not receiving enough pay to surrvive or their families. This is a powerful piece. In My town it angers me all the homelss starving and dying on the streets and they want to take 7.5 million to puty a new drive and some flowers and shrubs on a front lake park for the city. Wheres are minds whos in charge of this government. God help us all.
