Russia To Build New Space Transport System

Energia administrators announced plans for a new Moon mission launch site, practice on long-term interplanetary flight missions and the development of a new "space transport system."

I don't really have anything to add to this story. Just my utter astonishment at how quickly some countries have not only grasped the importance of the advancement of Space Technology to their bottom line, but also managed to implement changes in their administration of that technology.
It seems to me NASA should have a reliable Space Transport System by now....or at least something close to one.
