dude, do you realize how stupid it sounds when you say "we are saving money"
Cost of sending up a shuttle.... $450 million per mission

Cost of sending up one astronaut... $71 million. We don't need to send up a full crew anymore. Even when you jack up the price next year to $80 million a seat, we will still be spending less. In the meantime, SpaceX and Boeing are testing rockets and the chances are looking pretty good they will be cutting off the funds you fucking scalpers keep jacking up the rates on. But then again, what else should we have expected from you fucking degenerates?

Still saving money. Or don't you do math?
