NASA spends $18 billion a year to literally fly around in circles for no reason, with no tangible end product. It is a perpetual pork barrel project that mainly benefits Houston and Cape Canaveral. Somehow, NASA gets the credit for inventing a lot of things (like Tang, transistors, Teflon and Velcro) with which it had no connection.
