Linking to the previous Michael Lewis piece on the DoE: I'd love it if he did NASA next. I guess there's not so much a sense of urgency there, though; NASA isn't keeping anyone alive (as directly), although the climate science they're doing arguably does/will. I'd also love to hear some counter-arguments to the allegations he's laid out. But it has to be (like he says) something more sophisticated than "big government is bad, and the poor all deserve their lot in life because they're just lazy".
