90% of NASA's current work having no benefit to the day-to-day life of 90% of Americans. Not that Americans have ever understood the ROI of space research. Most of them don't know NASA makes their satellite weather a possibility - most of them don't even know that without satellites we wouldn't have even the forecast accuracy we do. Most of them don't know NASA makes their TV possible. All they know is the moon landings, and that was eons ago. Add that to the fact that Americans have absolutely no idea how their tax dollars are spent, and bam - asking Americans about spending policy is just time wasted.
