You are definitely being smarmy, whatever that is.....

However, if you fail to see the TRILLIONS in dollars of COMMERCIAL trade empowered by the interstate highway system, then far be it from me to try to educate you on that.

If you fail to see that New York, London, Tokyo and most other major centers of COMMERCIALISM could not exist without public transportation, then I also would have a tough time pointing it out.

And, if you fail to see the value of GPS, Cable TV, Telephone and other communications....just a tiny part of the COMMERCIALISM empowered by the space program...yes, that would be a tough one to point out also.
