Maybe what is needed is a company/organization that acts as a general research
and development, but not as a production organization.. Either NASA become a 
private corp for R&D or a organization that is a clearing house or a R&D corp
for many US corps.. Kind of like having Boing, Lockheed, McDonald Douglas, and
other companies have a single company for their R&D and were all benefit. All
will still have their own directs. But.. Talk about Corp Co-Operation..
Maybe give the US more competition with the Japanese, Koreans, Singapore and
other nations..
