>>186468123Well, two things to consider:
1) the enemy, though small, PRINTS all of the money so naturally they have more
2) ~$20bil isn't bad, it implies investment in infrastructure like the space elevator discussed by PlusUltra
3) The military is where the good shit is going to be. The Navy has wicked cool secret space stuff, as do the CIA/Cabal.
I don't know the game with NASA but I think this really might just be about building a commercial elevator.
