But there's already a supercollider.

Why build another one of those and have two of the same thing, when they can build it, and we can build the ISS? Then we have one of each.

See, tw, I *do* see the need for a supercollider. I understand it's important to science. But they're building it. So why is it so important that the US spent $8 billion on something someone has already built? Why not spend that money on something different?
