EEEvul Branson and Rutan

Here's a prime moonbat screed for you. Apparently, private space travel is a bad thing because, when the feces hits the rotary air mover, they'll be up there, and the poor folks will be down here. Forget for a moment that any survival is better for mankind than no survival, or that space travel in currently dependent on earth support. It's bad because poor people can't afford it. By which standard we all ought to be walking.

And this is the kind of thinking that gets you a doctorate in history from Yale?

It's like creating a new class of people. The 'Have Beens In Space' and the 'Have Nots'.

And there's something wrong with that??

And of course, it was utterly immoral of Cunard to allow my grandmother's family to sail in steerage and not allow them to spend the voyage in first class. (If it was Cunard. All I know for sure is that they sailed via Liverpool.)
