NASA Ready to Launch a New Construction Misison

It's a sad way to run a railroad. IMHO, they should launch all the components using boosters and send up a construction crew to install them as fast as they can. Leave the crew up there to train while they are doing and keep mission control out of it. If mission control engineers are essential to construction, send them up too - and build a big enough station to handle the crew load. You would think the most powerful nation on earth would have a decent space station, not this wimpy effort.
