Another cut introduced by republicans is

I'm as prospace as the next person on here.
And would love to see us expand and develop space,
but I'm enough of realist to know that most people in general and
congress specifically
look at space as a luxury that we can't afford right now.
Unless you can come up with something concrete that we could do in
space that would
immediately and sustain ably stimulate the economy. They are going to
cut out what pork/fat
they find/perceive.

Just my $0.02
