I have no issue with NASA. It, along with its foreign counterparts, provides me with much of what I am proud of in terms of humanity -- with whatever pride can be mustered, that is. I think people complaint because they feel they have to. I say shut up and get over it. Almost everything has a good and bad side and anyone with the power of bordom can delude themselves into believing one p.o.v. holds more significance than the other. Chronic crybaby syndrome.
Space exploration is not entirely public even now. NASA, more often than not, acts as a general contractor for projects that require cost-effective technology. A lot of the bits and pieces come from companies like Raytheon and Lockheed Martin.
Also, the arguments here make it seem as though the choices are either/or. But it could be both. Privitization can occur in certain instances of space exploration that can be economically justified by private companies while other aspects of it are completely useless for private companies and can be pursued by NASA and the like. International space laws exist and are forming to regulate private involvment in space. There's nothing wrong with that. And there is nothing wrong with NASA continuing to make advancements because (1) there is competition among nations that is unavoidable, and (2) much of the results are beautiful and can one day lead to practicality.
In addition, you are all visually unpleasant and feeble-minded.
