@arstechnica This is another tragic example of how humanity over and over again destroys some of its most beneficial creations only because some - unfortunately - intelligent individuals play unfairly and abuse a system to gain a personal advantage. And just like game theory tells: in the long run everyone has to play unfairly or otherwise fault by default... classic lose - lose
A fix? Most likely impossible as the gatekeepers benefit from the current system.
@rbreich It has perplexed me for a long time when people say "tax the wealthy" but they balk at a flat tax where everyone would pay a percentage without loopholes.
@arstechnica Rocketry is hard, the fact that SpaceX has it down to an (almost) fine art, makes it easy to forget for many, just how incredibly difficult the engineering is...They'll have this solved and sorted pretty quickly to everyones satisfaction,, to that I have no doubt.
