76. dumb decision...
It sounds like he's wanting to privatize the exploration of space in false hopes that it'll reduce costs. Space exploration, however shouldn't just be left to the market because it won't be seen as profitable at this stage.

The other projects he says this is draining money from rely on the exploration of the Moon's low gravity. This would be like if we had wanted to explore California without going through the Midwest.
