Jobs
$2.5 Billion isn't just money burnt up. It's $2.5 Billion of goods and services into the US economy which creates about 3X that amount. Study after study proves the fact of dollars spent ripple through an economy. On any business.
A NASA job at $60K a year is spent on food, clothing and so much more.
Would you really rather just give $60K on welfare or $60K on a highly skilled technical employed person and advance science?
Every dollar spent on NASA has returned at least 8X in benefits. Not going to waste the time, you know what Google is. Look it up yourself.
