I've tried to get funding for this idea and that idea

Haven't gotten a penny. And I had at least one idea taken by a German university researcher who got hundreds of thousands of dollars funding for it. But I'm not German, I'm Canadian, so I didn't get a damn thing. I'm hesitant to even drop the idea for a VAST space telescope, because I'm 100-percent certain someone else is going to benefit, but not me. It's not attitude, it's a matter of self-respect.
