Sometimes I think the US federal government has too much money. The management function is to say yes to resources in set A and no to everything else. Now, if there's too much money so |A| can grow quite big, you don't have to be good at management anymore to pay for A. Same thing on munitions. Does every damn thing need to be $100k+? Maybe the Pentagon needs less cash.

That's fine, we've got Gallileo and BeiDou now so don't really need GPS that much any more. BeiDou-3 doesn't seem to have the same problems that GPS-III does.

It's interesting that we're so afraid of cancelling projects because it's seen as wasteful...and yet deeper we march into the swamp.
