NASA, like the post office, is such a public benefit that we should be funding it well.

I don't think people understand how much value we get from NASA... Like, $7 for every dollar spent, or more, in economic benefit and technological advancements. So many solutions they have to come up with to make space flight possible are incredibly useful here on Earth too

Value that we won't get if we're paying a private company to do it
