The communities where Boeing employees live did indeed make money.

  Will someone think of the share-holders?!

    What about the tax payer? I don’t want a space program that soaks billions of dollars and doesn’t actually deliver on anything. If we are going to have the fed boost job figures by funding large projects then there’s dozens of other things they could invest the money in that will provide actually valuable assets. I’d love to have a viable national space program. The current program has helped advance us so much and an effective program would be a huge boon for society. However this $4b was clearly wasted, and we need to spend our money with companies that deliver results. I just wish there were more companies delivering on their promises in the space industry.

  Eh, I don’t think thats true either. Here in Washington it’s not exactly secret Boeing is trying to hollow out their local workforce. Unless you’re at the executive level, Boeing is “heads we win, tails you lose.”
