[QUOTE="Jipster, post: 236004, member: 97"] Hang on did we spend that money or was this part of an off set programme related to an arms deal with the Russians? If off set deal, there may not be any money involved or at least not the amount quoted. Its easy to bash something like this.... but more difficult to be open minded and look at the potential benefits.... particularly if matched to something like an off set programme ie all the gains without the pain... Anyway, even though our dash boards fall off etc. we now have some semblance of an automotive industry.... its just a matter of where do want to go from here. Same thing with this.... have to start somewhere right? even if as a space flight participant... at least not space tourist :) The Indians spend big bucks on their space programme.... now got ballistic missile capability (off shoot of space programme).... before anyone starts slagging of the Indians, think again... this is an economy thats on the verge of greatness.... same like China.... The business of government is not simple ..... its not all about bottom lines... its more than that... its bigger than that. Think about it... [/QUOTE]
