there will be no such products from an SDHLV.

No, I don't, because that's *ENTIRELY*
*IRRELEVANT.* The question is whether ESAS

Usually your statements can at least be justified in one dubious context
or another, but for this one, it is hard to go past stupid. Just because
the returns of some projects can be very long term and very distributed
does not mean that they do not have to be profitable.


Yeah? Let us all know when the US Air Force turns a profit.


What I find particularly offensive is that the $100 billion wasted by
this government affiliated monopolistic power group


Not much point in trying to make sense of anything past this point. NASA
is not a monopoly on space power.
