Writing in Business Week, science writer John Carey predicted that Congress would ultimately keep alive the Space Station, which he labeled a boondoggle, and very likely kill the scientifically worthy Super Collider. Carey charged that the Space Station was mainly being kept alive to preserve 15,000 mostly high-paying jobs in areas hard hit by defense cut-backs. He viewed the cries of those who charged that the country couldn't afford the Super Collider as hypocrisy, noting that Congress funds much less worthy projects. (Business Week, Sept. 13/93)
