Jeff Bezos Overcomes 3 Hurdles To Revolutionizing Space Travel

32 comments

  1. They got a whole news broadcast dedicated to a man’s ego. The media is so trash acting as if this is some ne accomplishment.

    1. @Mark Evans yeah this is trash. Maybe he gave them a couple million to make a big deal out of it. I wouldn’t be surprised.

  2. Really don’t care that much about this…. Jeff, make better use of your money, we have huge problems here on the ground. (and your cardboard boxes are crap)

    1. @Mark Evans that human beings are fainting at work in the richest country on earth because their super mega billionaire boss won’t spend .00000000000001% of his money to cool his employees? geee why does it bother us? I think it’s called empathy and compassion, and pretty basic human decency. WHY DOESN’T IT BOTHER YOU?

    2. @World he could’ve funded NASA for years. he could literally end starving and suffering all over the world. but nope. his ex wife at least is spending half his money in a decent way

    3. @howdareyou41 Exactly my point. Thank you for that precise description of Bezos – and let me add that he spends more money on his nefarious anti-union tactics through fake social media trolls than he spends on wellbeing of people who shovel vibrators for housewives day in and day out.

  3. They estimate 300 tonnes of CO2 for one launch into space. 300 tonnes of CO2 that’ll be around for centuries and for what. For 10 mins of experience and to indulge the ego. Talk about way out of skew priorities.

  4. Proverbs 23:5 “Will you set your eyes upon that which is not? for riches certainly make themselves wings; they fly away as an eagle toward heaven.”

  5. Hurdle 1: make sure Amazon pays less than 13% effective tax rate. Hurdle 2: make sure Jeff bezos pays 0 in federal income tax. Hurdle 3: score a government grant by corrupting our senators–even though they lost the space race to space-x. Gotta give it to him, he did it.

  6. Just joy rides for the rich. Polluting the atmosphere forrich selfish thrills. Give your workers pee breaks and air-conditioning….

  7. Spacex with the phallic rocket that penetrated the atmosphere to enter the holyland. After finishing, it pulled back out and returned, emptied and much smaller.
    Yeah, sounds about right.

  8. Just letting you know, I am only clicking on these to give them a “thumbs down”, MSNBC. Can’t believe you are gushing over this nonsense. You all make too much money to appreciate the plight of the typical citizen.

  9. Quite a few on the left are criticizing how he spent his own money. Some politicians too. First, do you complain about how “baller’s” waste money on, da club, or whatever. Second, YOU’RE politicians, you make the tax laws!
