Comment Because Congressmen retaliate. (Score 2) 200
I have family members who worked in NASA at high levels.
NASA has no power compared to a powerful Congresdroid scorned.
The consequences to NASA for publicly embarrassing Congressdroids over embarrassing pork insisted upon by such droids would be so much worse. The retaliation droids would in return destroy the primary science goals and missions of NASA.
Stennis was mentioned, back many years ago, as a prime geographical centroid of pork though hardly the only one.
