Virgin extracted a lot of money from taxpayers to build their spaceport boondoggle with a lot of lies about passenger flights out of there.

I see what you mean! A quarter of a billion is a lot of money...But in 2 counties who are desperate and VOTED to pass a levy to pay for it, I'd say it's worth a shot! @ $250,000 per ride, it'll take 1000 commercial rides into space to break even ;(. Mr. Branson better get the gitty on this one! They do have many successful test flights already completed. ;)
