They can invest it into a cash reserve to combat the existential risk to the company from a global disaster which halts airline travel. Investors are too short-term focused and states are too corporate welfare dealing for that to be enticin

Chariot Racing was huge. The largest stadium ever built was the Circus Maximus which could hold over 150,000 people. The stadiums in the world right now don’t even come close.

Every bit of negative Elon Musk oriented news brings out an apologetic post excusing failure and painting it positively, with a pile of democratic support. This is a failure, and failure is perfectly ok working on something like this, but w
