DevBru,The NASA budget it less than 0.5% of what the US government is planning on spending in 2020.
If you would know what great technological innovations came from space exploration, innovations we can't even imagine living without today, you wouldn't react that way. That is 0.5% of a yearly budget well spend, there are a lot of other spendings that are actually a waste of money.
So that question you asked earlier about why do it isn't even worth answering.
Stop bullshitting. And 0.5% complete waste of money too.
