>>> You act as if the government has no place in helping launch new industries. I'm not sure when you nitwits got the idea that it is government's job to "launch new industries". But it isn't and it shouldn't be. I have no problem if a new industry gets launched out of work NASA does, etc. -- but government should not be spending money with that in mind. Which is how the Internet came into being. (There was never any objective to "launch a new industry" with the Internet).
