NASA is a taxpayer boondoggle. The faster we can transition wasting tax dollars on it to the private sector and dismantle the agency the better.

- Jcowell 5y agoHell no. Space exploration and expansion should absolutely NOT be in the hands of corporations but an government funded entity that contracts out work as we have now. If every government program should be profitable.
- systemvoltage 5y agoI'd vote for NASA + private enterprise combo similar to DARPA programs. Leadership in the gov, execution in the private industry.
- voidfunc 5y agoSpace exploration and expansion shouldn’t be in the hands of the government in the first place. Let the private sector figure out how to do it, pay for it, and profit on it.
- kiba 5y agoThe problem isn't NASA. It's congresscritters.
- yellowapple 5y agoNASA is one of the biggest bangs (literally) for the taxpayer buck in the entire US federal budget. There are countless other agencies I'd be scrapping long before even thinking about scrapping NASA.
