    SST will be gone, but we still have to pay the debt over the cost of that thing?

    US debt? Well, I think that's the least of the worries compared to the
    bigger picture.

    Good riddance to that money-sucking white elephant.

    Cool, keep them coming. My internet speeds get better every day. And
    I've never had an astroimage ruined by satellites. And never will.
    Because I know what I'm doing and how astroimaging works.

    Of course, the US don't have to worry about debt, interest is paid by the world or at least those countries who use the dollar.
    That's why nations are starving in Africa, can't even pay the interest on western loans, just roll it over, never mind feed them self.
