That program will cost $200B for 3 or 4 years! That's almost a trillion dollars!!
$600B to $800B is almost what? In other words, 60% to 80% is almost 100%.
It's not trillions; it's ONLY $2B!

No, republicans are talking about how the programs funded in this budget will leave us with a debt of over $20 trillion in ten years. You can call that linguistics, but it still means we're fucked.
I'm talking about an extra $2 billion. You know, like last year when the cash for clunkers program needed an extra $2 billion. Congress instantly says, sure no problem. Here you go. But maintain the US's lead in space? Invest in future technologies that will provide literally worlds of resources, no that's too expensive.
