Returning to Moon before this century is out ?!

The report makes it clear that NASA's current plans are unachievable.

It's commonly said that what took us about eight years to get done in the first place--starting from President Kennedy's famous statement to Congress in May 1961...

I believe that this nation should commit itself to achieving the goal, before this decade is out, of landing a man on the Moon and returning him safely to the Earth. No single space project in this period will be more impressive to mankind, or more important in the long-range exploration of space; and none will be so difficult or expensive to accomplish.

...and ending with the successful return of Apollo 11 on July 24, 1969--couldn't be done again today because the U.S. lacks the will to commit comparable resources to the project.

BAD HARDWARE: How the hell plans worked so smoothly 40 years ago? Today US lacks the will? Is the will lacking after possible collaterals of discovery of non existence Apollo traces at Moon surface?
