If we actually funded public services to the required levels NASA and so forth would be fine to do things in house. We're just allergic to anything that makes actual sense when we have an oligarchy to support. That's it.

How do you view the cost effectiveness of the SLS?

Couldn't that money be put to better use expanding the boundaries of human and machine exploration, instead of being a less efficient redundant effort?

Curious what you think of the SLS.
