The average taxpayer pays NASA $55 per year.
- ArtDev 12y agoI pay less for my Science Museum membership. I would love to see NASA fixed (firstly) and fully funded (once its fixed).
- fargolime 12y agoWell you haven't paid a dime in NASA funding yet. All funding to date has been borrowed from people younger than you or not yet born. Presumably the gov't will borrow many times more to get to Mars, than it has for any previous mission.
- fargolime 12y agoYou think that will pay for a human expedition to Mars and back?
- fargolime 12y agoIf the US wasn't $17 trillion in debt, I could agree. Pretty sure all NASA funding to date fits into that debt amount. Since it's a "nice to have", I'd say the average taxpayer has never paid anything to NASA, not even interest on debt since we borrow to pay that.
