You are right when you say that growth was before Obama. Personally, I am just an aerospace engineer so when I see a company creating new jobs I assume growth. Two friends of mine work at SpaceX and have told me that the company is preparing to expand greatly. I am no legal mind nor an economist so I won't pretend to understand the micro or macro economics of it, if you have more experience on this subject I will have to be humble. However I still believe that the space industry is booming and that reigning in NASA was a good decision. This will become a very lucrative industry for America's future.

Haha yeah somehow I don't think a speech like that would have taken him very far.

That wasn't the debate, I wasn't even quoting anything Obama had said. He merely went off on a tangent as opposed to discussing the up and coming space industry.

It's funny that is the exact argument my libertarian friend made a few weeks ago when the Falcon 9 reached orbit, I can see the point of view, we need enough freedom in the market for competition but not so much that it leads to corruption as Mike_O_FL made just below. Finding that balance has been a game this country has been playing for generations now.

The policy of awarding the contracts originally intended for NASA to private companies would help. If you truly believe this administration has hindered private space growth how do you explain the expansion of SpaceX or Bigelow Aerospace constructing a spaceport on Wallops Island? How do you feel the administration could better help the industry aside from cutting more taxes?

I'd like to think that we could've had an interesting debate, but if you'd rather not even try then I suppose that is your right.

I'm just as surprised as you are, I thought this would be the place to find a large number of people agreeing with this pro-competition plan but maybe people can't get over their political affiliations.

I can agree with most of that but I feel you underestimate the impact a limited NASA makes on commercial space flight. NASA suddenly becomes a large customer for the private space community what with astronaut transport to the ISS. With competition these COTS companies are finding much cheaper methods of space travel to compete for big contracts as opposed to NASA dragging their feet.

I never said that I believed everything he said, you have contributed absolutely nothing to the conversation.

This is true, but am I wrong in thinking that SpaceX will only expand further because of NASA's more limited role?

Obama has actually spurred the private space industry by reigning in NASA and allowing capitalism to take control, companies like SpaceX are expanding incredibly and have recently launched their first rocket into orbit. http://www.spacex.com/updates.php You may not like the president but at least give him some credit, the free market will push the American space industry so much farther than the Russians

I didn't make any reference to a liberal agenda or any agenda but simply thought that Animal Farm is a ridiculous way to describe this administration. No where near are we to the totalitarian government that was outlined in Animal Farm and this sort of fear mongering that the end is always a few steps away is irrational. Calling Obama a nazi is just as ridiculous as it was calling Bush a nazi.

The calmest reply to a slew of hate I have ever seen on this site. Kudos to not resorting to name calling.

The surge in Ron Paul supporters shows that more and more Americans are leaning towards libertarianism, I live in Boston and saw more Ron Paul posters and bumperstickers than any other political candidate. I can't speak for the rest of the state but in Boston people seem to be tired of high taxes and business restrictions.
