In the words of Jack Reacher, “Remember, you wanted this.”

Tom Cruise had a great line in Reacher. Before taking on 5 guys in a fight Reacher warned them about taking that final step. “Remember, you wanted this.” He then beat the hell out of all of them. It’s a great scene. Go watch it.

So all the NASA MAGAts of Johnson Space Center might be facing their own Reacher named Vivek Ramaswamy (BTW did you know he is an anchor baby?) who is teaming up with the Vice President Elect Elon Musk to cut spending in the federal government. For NASA that means privatize services at the expense of civil service employees. The argument is easy to understand even though it’s not true. Civil Service employees do not add value to the NASA program. Instead of paying Civil Service employees a salary and great benefits, just pay the contractors like SpaceX. After all most of NASA’s money is spent on contractors.

And you know how much trump loves Elon. So be prepared for an early retirement. And remember, you wanted this.
