    They don’t need to go that far. Just force Musk to divest. (And prosecute him for any crimes he’s committed, but that might be asking too much of the government.)

      They should go that far though.

      This entire position that things are in are a direct result of a certain party trying to privatize space travel, and “run it like a business”, which is how the Challenger disaster happened.

      So wouldn’t be the worst idea to pull waayyyyyy back.
