[Amendment10]

I grew up watching the lift-offs of NASA’s pre-shuttle manned rockets and was facinated by man walking on moon like everybody else. But now that I’ve actually studied the Constitution, unless you define NASA as a branch of the military, the states have never delegated to Congress via the Constitution the specific power to tax and spend for space exploration purposes.

In other words, in order for Uncle Sam to tax and spend for NASA, the states need to amend the Constitution for Congress to tax and spend for such purposes as much as amendments are required for Obamacare, public schools and regulating environment as examples.

So killing NASA is one thing that Obama did right regarding Congress’s constitutionally limited powers regardless that his motives are questionable.

I'm okay with that. Missile technology. Satellite technology. Other advancements that help our military come from it.

The global corporations would just as soon sell to China and Iran as they would, well there is no one here to sell it to...
