Reply to comment by 3255803 in Bruno Le Maire: Europe needs ‘unwavering unity’ against China, US in space by Soupjoe5

I've done government funded projects here in Europe. You are dead on right. They make a lot of noise about it being spent right, but nobody checks, and as long as the right numbers are on the right lines, nobody is going to check.

We actually did our best to do everything right, but it was scary how nobody cared what we were doing.

I know the feeling, I'm also in Europe working in the satellite communication industry, that's how I know we're far behind USA or China. As you say, nobody cares, even myself lately.. got tired of being underpaid in a place where nobody really cares about anything, all they do is talking, meetings and promises but nothing good ever happens. Wish I can change my career while I still can, before I get too old..
