Re: Asians to dominate space too?

The United States is run by the corporations, and they're not interested in
anything unless they can turn a profit. Look at what this administration has
done and tell me it isn't run by corporate interests. And until there is
something in space or done in space that one can turn a quick and/or large
amount of profit on, the United States will never really seriously fund space
science and exploration in any adequate way.
