while calling all of us hypocrites.

"All of us"???

I did no such thing.

Bearing false witness is a bad idea. Don't do it.

Bureaucrats hate people like Musk, simply because they themselves are losers of less than average intelligence who could never in a million years achieve anything of the slightest significance. Thus they tear down their betters, being overwhelmed with envy. Ayn Rand describes them exactly.

My friend. Go back and look at post 25.

How did FR react when the FAA grounded 737-MAX? It was with approval.

But Boeing is part of the hated "military industrial complex", so verbally defecating on Boeing is OK.

SpaceX is an all-holy private company, so any government action unfavorable to it is demonic. (Never mind all the USAF/USSF and NRO launches ...)

There's a lot of hypocrisy on this forum.

Yes, you called us hypocrites. Lets drop this now and part as fellow conservatives who agree to disagree. I don't think we are going to accomplish anything else by keeping this up and parsing individual words.

[NorthMountain]

There are hypocrites on this forum, engaged in hypocrisy.

I DID NOT call “all of us” hypocrites, as you falsely accused me.

I am certain that you are intelligent enough to understand the very real difference between “all” and “a lot”.

How did they not throw in global warming as one of the reasons?? It pretty much pops up on everything else...

>> An FAA fed is a disgruntled pilot who couldn’t get a real job in aviation. <<

Nah, they’re old Air Force folks who worked at radar installations, etc., instead of becoming pilots. And that’s 100% the truth. Until the 1990s, when they started running out of young-ish veterans, it was a 100% military operation.

As opposed to our cartels?

The 63 item checklist is generated by Spacex. FAA doesn’t do that. They will review the paper submission as to whether the items are resolved.

“The investigation — which SpaceX led and the FAA oversaw — identified “multiple root causes” of the April 20 launch failure and 63 corrective actions the company “must take to prevent mishap reoccurrence,” FAA officials said in an emailed statement today (Sept. 8).”

And the deep state is losing on all sides.Musk is by far the richest man in America/on the planet and fast moving to become the most powerful.

[SmokingJoe]

Not gonna happen. ‘Big guy’ may just get lawsuits from Musk from all angles.

[SmokingJoe]

Almost all SpaceX money come from Falcon 9/Dragon.
They are making nothing from Starship.
Yet.
