    I'm trying to remember that far back. If I describe myself it wouldn't do any good: 6'2", white, brown hair, about 185 lbs at the time. Better-looking than most, though. (One of these: ;) )

    But I don't recall a CC fans get-together. Most people here want to keep their anonymity, understandably. These days beer bottles would be thrown / broken: LIBTARD! TRUMPER!

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but he's self-made and endorses universal basic income, right?

    I have no issue with people who earned what they have.

    Redundancy. You dont want a hurricane coming in and wiping out both at once. Also you dont want one of these rockets exploding over Houston.

    Also in the near future, living next to a launch pad will be like living near an airport. Not very desirable.

    Dont count out Blue Origin. But thats the difference between Musk and Bezos. One is concerned for humanity. The other is only interested in the capitalism.

    He is and we're also seeing the largest wealth transfer in history. I don't have anything against the guy it's just a sad state of affairs right now for a lot of working class folks.

    Mars is a pipe dream.

    Much more economical to start with the Moon and mining asteroids.

    Read this book:

    And yet, they're happy with their 70" Black Friday HDTVs, sportball and beers, girls night and Facebook.

    It is what it is. You can't be hungry if you're full. It will take a lot more than what we're seeing now for people to get hungry enough to get off their fat asses and do something about it.

    People should spend their money anyway they want

    I contribute my money to Clutchfans and apparently the people who complain the most here are those who don’t spend a penny here .
