I'm thinking it's about time to add another person to my ignore list.
Christianity: The belief that a cosmic Jewish Zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree...
Remember that Doc probably pays many hundreds of dollars per year to support NASA. He should be able to demand an accounting.
I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891
I think they do important, worthwhile work in orbit, but they should'n't be launching 2 - decades old clunkers to get people and payload up there.
I figured by now they would have a good orbital entry vehicle that could launch off a jumbo jet. The way it's done now, with shi*loads of fuel and such a high risk, seems crude.

I pay taxes and quite a bit. But apparently you would rather entitle my tax monies to a third world starving person thereby temporarily solving an immediate world issue. Long term solutions apparently don't apply.

The sad thing is that Che's view is also the view of the general public, so it looks like NASA will be keeping manned missions for a while.
And good for us, because people's lives have been improved by manned space flight. More people are alive because of the medical technology that has resulted directly from manned space flight. People are more productive because of computers, the development of which was masssively improved because of manned space flight. The only people who are opposed to manned space flight are those who are ignorant about it.

Although a manned mission to mars would be a waste and too dangerous.
We need to continue orbital work. If nothing else then for national security. Soon China will be in space. And we must continue space work so we are more familiar with the technology to get to space. Time may come when other nations threaten our satellits with their satellites. Developing technology to efficienty get into orbit is always a priority.
