17.5 billion. Is that an increase or decrease in budget?
Imagine the healthcare system you guys could have with 17.5 billion per year plus the 100 billion (give or take) wasted on the “war on drugs”. Its sickening that people die every day after being turned away from emergency rooms for lack of insurance. It’s common sense if you ask me.
Human Life > Space Program & War on Drugs
17.5 billion is still not enough. However it’s still pretty amazing that they can do all of this with such a small budget.
Cool. The space exploration is the most important thing, us as human being can do. Money will be better spend here then on F unnecessary wars, eg. Afghanistan, Iraq, etc. how much money went into that?, I think enough for all of us living in US to be millionaires.
Its time for the military to be cut back by as much as 65%. Cutting all the military personal down to just about 500,000 in all and big wasteful government projects as well. There is no big world wars to fight no more so we can use the 10s billions needed to better humanity’s quest to go in to space more.
