The moon should be more or less routine with a base built but instead we have presidents saying "We are going back to the moon" then the next one says "Nope, we are going to Mars" and then the next one says, "Nope, we are going to the moon."

Pick one and do it!

I'm assuming it's like most things at the federal level. The president can toss out decrees all day long, but someone still has to pay for it. And that's congress.

Which should explain a lot. It's hard to pay for advancement and achievement when you're busy making sure your donors have contracts.
