(Slightly offtopic) If that's going to be the case, then you're saying that with NASA almost neutered, Americans in reality will have to depend on private corporations for space travel. That's kind of sad, compared to other space programs elsewhere (methinks of my readings of Deception Point, which partly discussed about NASA's uncertain future).
On the account of today's bitter reality (along with exorbitant government expenditures), you must be correct, but some of us (being sentimental) back in the 80s used to be excited about watching the Shuttles go on liftoff (and at one point I contemplated about becoming an astronaut while in kindergarten).
