why? as stated before, NASA's budget is tiny compared to so many other areas of the US government. if you shaved just 0.02% off of the US military budget, that would be more than enough to fund everything that NASA is doing/wants to do
the way that the US government is looking to cut spending is absurd. the rational way to cut spending of any sort is to look at the largest expenditures first and then work your way down. they seem to be looking at all of the little stuff first while ignoring the huge holes in the budget that could actually make a difference
