  Neither do I, but it *is* unfair to the people who put their
best life efforts into space.   I will never again go into a field
unless there are a wide variety of jobs available supported by a variety
of industries.  The long-term effect of people thinking like this in
a very nature self-defense reaction is that it is going to be much
harder to recruit the next generation of aerospace workers (and other
isolated industries will have the same problem).
