[ExI] fly me to the moon

Yet another reason why it is better if space launch capabilities are in private hands rather than governments:

Governments just do dumb boring stuff with rockets, like haul proles to a space station or nuclear bombs to each others’ cities.  Elon Musk creates a new royalty, which does more fun silliness than the traditional royalty.

 

I can suggest a great theme song for Maezawa:

As he is doing that, his billions filter back into the economy, giving jobs to thousands, gives all those young women a dream, ah such a deal.

 

Well done, Mr. Musk.  Good luck Mr. Maezawa.
