NOAA is a globally relevant working US service, and while one can live without eyes... it makes life more complicated when hurricanes pop up without warning.

As an organization it is data driven, where countless airlines, maritime shipping, and agricultural entities can't properly function without the service.

Any states that lose NOAA will also see just about every insurance premium balloon into the stratosphere.

Someone is letting the dog drive, lol =)
