Well I certainly wasn't speaking for you. You were included in the arch-capitalist cabal, as you are defending as a real respectable wheeze some thrill-seeking ultramoneybags "going into space" at a quarter of a million a pop. Incidentally, the US is one of only a few countries that think space starts at fifty miles. Most of the rest of us think that space starts twelve miles higher, so the vacuous Branson, at a mere 53, didn't make it after all. However, I'm sure you yanks will enjoy giving him his astronaut's badge.
