You'd have to evaluate the previous cost of said launching(s) and what it is today to see if the investment was 'worth' it.

Last time the state made rockets it strapped 50 megaton warheads on them and threatened killing every god damn person on the planet if we dont respect its ego.

I don't see the advantage of having the price of a NASA janitor's government pension built into my price when I'm purchasing a satellite communication uplink for my right-wing Christian freedom militia compound in rural Montana.

We need more state run mass death machines because the private sector keeps NOT using them to kill 50,000 people.

You want to use it to mine minerals we use to make technology that doctors use to increase the life expectancy of everyone on earth?

Excuse me mr EGO, but we have 50,000 people to kill in the name of whatever someone who did nothing their entire lives until a bunch of retards voted for him wants to do.

Doing business with bad people is usually better for everyone.

Including the aforementioned fat womanizing serial philanderer.

I think hating people (or at least not fitting in) is what drives highly productive people.

If they fit into our douchebag ass society, they would just enjoy doing nothing like everyone else does.

*thinks in history

Rather than a single act of "nationalization," the Nazi regime's control over rocket production evolved over time, becoming more state-run and militarized. The state's control was a result of increasing military interest, especially from the SS, and a massive expansion of manufacturing that relied on concentration camp slave labor.

I recall being promised a moon base in 2012 (delivery 2020). [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
