It sounds like he wants to use privately owned rockets to reach the moon.
That seems a bit unrealistic. The government could pay a private company
$20 billion to build a moon rocket or the government could build it

itself
for the same money. I'm not sure I see the point in trying to privatize

it.
He might be advocating private rockets to low Earth orbit, but I'm an
advocate of abandoning low Earth orbit.


Why don't you do us all a favor, and abandon the solar system
altogether?


Because I'm smarter than you are.


I'm sure you are, Pumpkin.
