Obama will never allow a serious space program to be restarted. There are serious side-effects to one. Increased employment, reduced welfare recipients, national pride and encouragement for educational excellence that would force the members of the teachers unions to work for a living.
If Obama had not cancelled the Orion spacecraft and its Aries-1 rocket, America would have already returned to space. Now our only hope is Elon Musk can deliver on what he bought with his hundreds of thousands of dollars of political contributions to Obama.
I am not sure what is worse: bloated, unionized bureaucracy or rent-seeking private industry through both and paid for political favors.
OMG! Increased employment? Can’t have that! Thats exactly contrary to our transforned economics policy. Thanks for explanation.
Fully funding more Solyndras is a higher priority with the current regime.
