Interesting watching the TV media doing repeated stories of billionaires Elon Musk’s and Richard Branson’s space race. This is a competition to corner the market on space rides for the ultra-rich to get a joy ride for $250,000 per person.
What is not mentioned is that all involved are people who are not paying taxes. The average American is paying a disproportionate amount of taxes so that the wealthy can live a decadent, self-serving lifestyle.
Shame on the broadcast media for not bringing up this outrage It’s so simple, they should pay their fair share as the rest of us do.
