    That’s why people want to go to mars btw. Some people are economists/adventurers and can’t stand still. Doing business on Earth however starts to be more and more damaging as we’re exhausting the possibilities of healthy growth. That’s why it’s better to cease economic growth on earth and instead focus the “line must go up (at any cost)” people on Mars. Just my two cents from the ecological perspective.

      except making mars even somewhat habitable is a centuries long undertaking, decades after decades of cost without even a glimmer returns on the horizon. The Line Go Up folks only talk about it because they’re delusional, not because it actually gives them what they want.
