That's not what's going on. Typically, big, beautiful projects are funded through taxpayer funds when the state is fighting a propaganda war. The beautiful art in renaissance churches were funded during times of war to show "I'm better than you", the same goes for the race to the moon. Does that mean it works better? No. It simply means that the funds and energies which normally would be dispersed in an economy are funneled into a specific sector which isn't as productive. Because if it was as productive or more, people would be funding space travel themselves. Taxes and government are typically seen as a negative or net zero upon an economy because they don't create economic growth or wealth, they can only help facilitate activity by keeping things in order.

Government provides a tax funded service, the private market provides a service of similar quality, for far less cost - however, the government service is free to use, so it out competes the far cheaper private service. This would happen even if the private service was both cheaper and better.

For the private service to compete, it must provide a significantly superior service to government alternatives warrant it's cost.

People then say "the private services are to expensive for poor people" and justify the continuation of the government services, and expanding them.

The moon landing and victory in the Space Race merely exemplified the potentiality for American achievement when we unite towards a singular goal.

If we still had this fervent, scientific wonder and ambition like the Nazis and old America had, we would be conquering stars.

The large budget NASA had in the early 1960's was due to the development of the Apollo missions. NASA needed to update its hardware to get people to the moon, just constructing the Saturn V's were costly. Apollo was one of the biggest manned space missions in history, so they needed a fuck ton of cash. NASA originally planned to have several more moon landing after Apollo 17, but the program was canceled because of the Vietnam War and other government interests. NASA made due with these cuts, and with the left over Apollo junk they created Skylab, America's first space station. Apollo 19, 20, and 21 were used to send crews up to the space station, but this was also during the time of the development of the Space Shuttle. There were problems with Skylab, and it was eventually in operable. If the shuttle had been ready just a couple years earlier that it did, it would have been able to save Skylab, but again there were set backs and cuts. After Skylab failed, there really wasn't a lot to do with the manned space program (except the Apollo-Soyuz mission to patch things up with the USSR), NASA just had the shuttle which was a lot smaller and a lot cheaper than previous manned missions to space. The shuttle made it easy to haul large hardware into space, I loved the space shuttle, but it eventually wore out and needed to be retired. NASA's primary focus now is on unmanned exploration around the solar system, weather data, astronomy and the development of the Orion mission. In spite of all this, people seem to think that we have done all there is to do with space travel.

Nigga you can throw a junker together in your own garage out of sheet metal if you've got the time and knowledge.

Cars are not complex.

Individual modern models of car might be complex - some of them are extremely complex - but those kinds of cars are certainly not easy to repair in your own garage if the complex parts die. I'd like to see you pull out an entire engine block and do a complete strip and reconditioning on a 2015 Lamborghini.

The private space industry is essential for more regular spaceflight and manned spaceflight. However, it does not have an inherent interest in studying the universe, human effects of climate change, and space based research, nor should the private space industry feel like it should or ever will take interest in such. Government space agencies are necessary for large research projects and exploration. For example, NASA hired Lockhead Martin, Boeing and other private companies to develop a lot of the Apollo hardware necessary to put man on the moon. But, those companies did not assume the risks of failure, NASA did. NASA made it possible for the private space industry develop.

YOU are what is wrong. We are drowning in debt and NASA has no valid reason to exist anymore. Any aerospace research with military applications can be rolled over to the DoD but NASA is complete fossil that hasn't been relevant since the end of the Cold War.

The history of NASA is a history of failure after failure. I've watched two Space Shuttle launches end in disaster in my lifetime. Now we're funding Space X's failures. For what benefit?

Let the billionaires fund space research and exploration. We have much bigger priorities as a nation.
