Humans like to dream. Its part of what makes us great.

But Neil Postman was right. We are Amusing Ourselves To Death - and Space is just one thing that's pretty cool to dream about. https://youtube.com/watch?v=3G8a4Tdnab8

And I can see now how Musk + Co. are intentionally selling fake future dreams to avoid the expensive work of dealing with the looming negative ecological & social disorder.
