Remember the time NASA burnt up $200MM in the Martian atmosphere because some chucklehead was using pound-seconds? Maybe let's sort out shit out.
Maybe a mistake NASA made 25 years ago is less influential on the ongoing crises plaguing the US like gun violence, civil and political unrest, and countless other issues are also on the list of things that need to change. Seems silly to argue about how civilians in a country weigh things when those civilians don't have water because their government gave up on fixing the infrastructure to provide that water in several major cities. You want national change from a country that's trying to find out if the potential next president will follow through with promises of being a dictator? Cool bro.
You're right, we'd better wait until absolutely everything else is perfect before making any changes whatsoever.
Not at all what I said. Just that it is not a priority.
