I think it's hilarious that NASA adopted the streaming industry's terminology for subscription services for its free streaming service. I thought at first that you'd have to pay for NASA+, but it is in fact free.
Should be free since it’s our taxes that fund NASA lol imagine funding an organization through taxes and then they try to sell a subscription service on top of that
California DOT is funded through taxes and I still have to pay an annual subscription to drive my car on public roadways.
You have to pay licensing so they can tie that car to you and your fees fund that program.
Healthcare and education ?
Public school is free
The American’s government doesn’t pay for healthcare by their governments choice, and because they keep not demanding it
post office?
NASA doesn't get enough money from the government anyway
Government has repeatedly reduced funding for the post office and introduced billing for stamps and packages in an attempt to ruin and privatize that part of the government
they've always done pics and vids. marketing refresh. must be a new director
