Look what happened when we spent the money on the Apollo program. Two generations of technology development came out of it.

We cannot operate our science agencies on the cheap, and we should not operate them without clear, multi-year direction.

Not only work with you, we want it to work, because the Habitable Worlds, which is one that we go in the 2040s, we have got to start it now.

Understand that this isn't all like we are pouring money down a rathole. Look what it is doing for our country.
