There's so much more to the private sector than tourism rockets! Consider:

  • Cheap components that don't work

  • Cheap satellites that don't work

  • Cheap lunar landers that don't work

  • Pump-and-dump get-rich-quick schemes

Man, I can't wait to work on that stuff. It sounds inspiring.

Iโ€™m stuck here, I have a career and Iโ€™m too old to start over in a foreign country. But Iโ€™ll be getting my kids dual citizenship elsewhere and encouraging them to leave if things stay the way they are.
