America is so deeply fucked, and 70-something million of them are too brainwashed to know it yet.

“It’s one small step backwards for man, it’s”, scans notes looking for last section of speech. Shrugs. “I think that’s it folks. One small step backwards it is.”
Wait, weren’t they going to take humanity into space?
Science Mission Directorate cut by 50%?
