>> Once a private enterprise can go mine asteroids they're going to have far more capital (i.e. money) than any nation on Earth. Private enterprises like the Rothschilds and Rockefellers have had more money than any nation on Earth for more than a century.

I'm not convinced that you're correct, but let's assume so anyway. The point I am making is that technological superiority buys you far more than mere cash. This is why I referred to "capital" and parenthesised "money". Apologies if this wasn't clear enough.

  If you assume so, you'll see that the current masters of our universe will not allow a company to build the capital and technology to industrialize space, until they have the control packet. They are not stupid you see. Same thing happened with IBM, HP, Microsoft, Oracle, Google, etc. There were many other technologies that had the potential to change the global political system, like the Internet.

I've never seen any reference saying the Rothschilds or the Rockefellers ever had more than a few hundred billion in today's dollars. Compare to the US federal budget, which is over 3 trillion per year.

  I, and many others, believe Rothschilds have over 500 trillion. Plus 80% share in Bank Federal Reserve New York ...

    I am currently neutral towards your assertion. Can you provide a link that tips the balance one way or the other?

      Well buddy, it's up to you. My advice: do your own research and make your own conclusions. There are a number of books on Rothschilds and a ton of Google hits. Generally to understand the history of any advanced civilization you have to follow the money. And since 1815 Rothschild have had enough capital and reputation amongst private investors to decide who rules in most countries, which country has the credit to start a war, which country/alliance has the money to win a war, etc
