Jerry Baumchen Wilson: $13 billion Space Force cost estimate is ‘conservative’ "They also question why Wilson is asking for 13,000 new people to form the Space Force, instead of moving more existing personnel into the new service. " How much will the Space Force cost, and what’s it going to look like? "Shanahan noted at multiple points that President Donald Trump and Mick Mulvaney, head of the Office of Management and Budget, have explicitly directed the department to not add any overhead. “People get an allergic reaction to adding overhead or unnecessary bureaucracy,” he said. “I’ve been with the president at multiple times. He always hammers on me: ‘Are you taking cost out? Are you reducing unnecessary regulations? Are you reducing bureaucracy?’ ” By not having a firm plan in hand, the Defense Department could be opening itself to a smaller, more limited version of the Space Force that still allots the Air Force a great deal of say-so on space." Space Command More Important Than Space Force: CSAF Goldfein; Trump Signs SPD-4 " It’s another clear sign of lack of support within the Pentagon for a major shift to its organizations to please President Trump’s sudden adoption of the Space Force. (I’m looking forward to the Ph.D analyses of rhetoric’s role in the president’s decision to create both Space Command and the Space Force. If they didn’t sound so cool, would the changes have been made?) Space Policy Directive 4 directs the Defense Secretary to write a legislative proposal for Congress to set up the Space Force and create a civilian undersecretary of the Air Force for space, who will be a Senate-confirmable position. it also recommits the administration to creating Space Command, a more complicated, and potentially, expensive enterprise than the Space Force, most of which already exists." Well trump did promise to create jobs. Edited February 20, 2019 by Phil1111 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
