> It’s really sad to think about how well NASA works when you consider how little funding they get and how hard they have to fight for it.

I do agree with you, but have you maybe considered that you're looking at it the wrong way?

Isn't there a saying that armies that eat bad food win more battles?

Could it be that because NASA is not funded at the level they deserve, they have to be more efficient?

By the same logic we could conclude that the US Military is an efficient operation. After all I can find someone who will argue their funding needs to be increased.
