The military budget should be turned over to NASA.
Let's build things instead of blowing the **** out of everything..

For those with short memories, Michio Kaku was one of the "Cassini will
kill us all! No nukes in space!" kooks.

Dismantling outdated attitudes and practices at NASA would be a
difficult task.

I think the government should scrap NASA and start again with a new
organisation.

Liquidate NASA, because our USAF is good to go as is.

If we lose our moon or that of its L1 to China, we lose everything.

How can you say that about someone who is obviously an expert on
absolutely everything?
It's rumored that they downloaded Carl Sagan's entire knowledge into
Kaku's brain just before Sagan died, so we are dealing with a
intelligence far beyond human here. :-D

NASA is far too interested in pork spending, and no interest in doing
much of anything but spending money

Losing man in space will be a learning experience for them.

In what sense lose the moon. The USA got there first. That can't change.
What's China going to do - colonise it? Good luck to them.

US spends just 4% on our countries infrastructure, while most
countries invest 15% or so.

If we cant afford usable roads bridges water and sewer etc etc we cant
afford space

Never going to happen. NASA's budget will get a minor increase over the
next five years and that's it. The space program doesn't protect our
"strategic interests" in the Middle East.
