I think that unless it's willing to commit to it in a greater capacity that it shouldn't bother at all as it takes a large amount of money to actually make any progress. Money that is given in a wishy-washy fashion is just money that shouldn't be spent. Privatization will likely happen anyways though. I think that NASA is strong and if we want to maintain scientific prowess or at least our strength there we need to invest in it more and we should consider that there are benefits after all.
