Oh? So would you please differentiate/explain the direct and indirect
funding?


Simple. My taxes go to the government or to various companies who collect

them for
the government. My Federal income taxes directly fund the U.S. government,

'cause
that's who I pay them to. The space program was and is directly funded by

the U.S.
government. Some portion of my tax money is used for that, and you can

argue that
this means I indirectly fund the space program.


George, that's pretty lame.


No, it's not. I have not sent one penny directly to NASA.
