Nuremberg defense. She could have quit.
- dkjaudyeqooe 3y agoYou've got to pick your battles, and let's face it, a well run and sensibly led SpaceX is a benefit to society (so far).
- bjacobel 3y agoIs it? How've you benefited from the existence of SpaceX? I haven't.
- danaris 3y agoThis seems like an instance of "Something must be done; this is something, therefore it must be done"—more high-quality rocketry and space expertise clearly is a benefit to humanity, at least in the long term, but that doesn't necessarily mean that SpaceX in particular needs to be the organization to do it.
- dkjaudyeqooe 3y agoAgreed, but they're pushing things forward. If we waited for Boeing or the like who are fed by fat, lazy government and military contracts things would never improve. Basically more (good) competition is better.
- danaris 3y ago...In other words, "We need competition; SpaceX is competition, therefore we need SpaceX"?
- arrosenberg 3y agoThat's fine, but you don't get a pass. If you choose not to fight that battle, then you get to wear the outcome too - that's what was decided at Nuremberg as well.
