  7.  @johngreen3513  No Musk offered and initially provided his service in Ukraine and the cost is not in the operation but the building and launching of the satellites. His system can't work without total global orbits. He promises to decommission them after five years by crashing them for burn up into the atmosphere. Sure Bill Gates does not like NOT getting a chuck of Chinese cash for every computer sold with windows in China. Any kind of spy technology the Chinese have the US already does. If war comes the US won't hesitate to use it against those who oppose war. The capitalist profit system becomes nothing but a big suck on value to capitalists who demand back more than they put in for doing absolutely nothing much more than existing. The best workers can hope for is that they reinvest to expand production. However they only do that when they see profits in a market ahead of production. They present themselves with the inalienable right to own and invest as they see fit. The problem their system has is that profits go to the industry and firms that can best replace skilled labor with unskilled labor and machines such that the real rate of profit by which all capitalist measure success declines as machines replace labor and prices naturally slump towards the cost of production. If their system could avoid war and fascism than capitalism would end when profit rates appproached zero since the reason to invest would end.. They view healthcare and education as overhead costs to be minimized. Why spend money on a sick worker when another can be hired? While war preparations always come first to defend the profit system from those who lack the confidence in the decisions of Wall Street investors. To avoid issuing wage cuts and provoking strikes they took the advice of the British Economist Keynes to rob the working class with state deficits and central bank generated inflation. The whole system is built around the promise to wealthy investors of a free lunch. Capital itself produces nothing since a perpetual motion machine is impossible When they can't find new products and markets for investment they drive up the value of fictitious capital only for it to collapse in periodic economic crisis. Unlike the working class the capitalist owners are divided into Imperialist nations that invest in the world market who will go to war over the defense of their nations profits and property no matter where in the world they are threatened. .
