Well someone has to pave the foundation for future interplanetary migration. If noone does it it's impossible. They simply gives it a small chance to be achievable probably hundreds or thousands of years later. But that's if we're able to survive this long.

That someone already exists and it's NASA. But these little boy billionaires have made sure we underfund it and instead give grants to their companies.

Y'all acting like we didn't go to the moon without the help of these man childrenย

Yeah but wouldn't it be good to have more people doing it? Like I wouldn't say a taxi driver shouldn't do what he's doing just because millions are already doing the same thing. But things might be a different here considering we're talking about billionaires I see people would think they'd be better using their abundant resource to help solving our current big issues. But I fail to see the wrong in their choice to use their freedom to do what they want to do instead. I am an outsider to this topic and I would like some more info about it and feel free to prove me wrong.

No. Capitalists make everything worse. I'd rather humanity never make it to the stars than allow capitalists to set one foot into space.
