  1. The odds are a lot higher when you don't cut corners, overwork employees, lie to regulators, and don't care of the costs in environmental damage, destroying a town, or lowering the standards of pay and treatment for an entire industry in the process! And to the PR bots that will inevitably be here from space x very soon, hello! Your argument that because it was unsafe and difficult in the beginning it is okay that it's unsafe and difficult now is trash. If Toyota started making cars without air bags and seatbelts today they would be a bad company cutting corners. When people die on a submarine because of cutting corners and believing in billionaire exceptionalism it's because the CEO was a blind and selfish person. And when space x cuts corners and makes the mistakes the industry fixed over half a century ago because of your ceo's cult of billionaire exceptionalism worship it's because space x is a bad company that cuts corners. That's why the landing pad threw chunks of rocks into endangered animal habitats! Until space x evicts musk from all interaction with the company and financial interest it is going to carry the cancer forever and it's going to waste all the effort by an extremely dedicated and experienced team of engineers. And don't send the pr line about Elon being an engineer okay, we know it's a lie. And to Paul, I do apologize for having this conversation in your comments rather than focusing on the information presented rather than this argument. And to any readers, I wish you could see my screen here in the first minutes of the video being able to be watched and the comments full of users with name name random numbers formats all astroturfing about space x
