I want to agree with you, but there is also the facet of a man that promised to build something cheaper and better, without doing his homework. Regulations don't just fall from the sky.
- Aarronn 4y agoIf nobody ever tries to build things which are physically possible but are likely to be blocked by regulators, we will never learn what the true constraint is. Most people around us believe that economic growth slowed down to near standstill due to some physical/technological constraints rather than was regulated away. We need more people like Musk who expose the truth that the regulations and bureaucracy are the largest problem the West has been facing for the last 40 years.
- schiffern 4y ago> a man that promised to build something cheaper and better No such promise was made. In fact, Musk explicitly went out of his way to say that he was not promising to build it himself. He said — paraphrasing — "I'm too busy to do this and it might not even work, but maybe someone else can work on it and succeed, so I'm giving away the idea for free."
