Elon Musk says he can build a rocket to get you anywhere on Earth in an hour

At the price of an economy ticket
I am curious how the hell he could possibly get it down to the price of economy. It costs 10K per pound currently to get into space. And you mean to tell me that he can get it down to economy pricing? I am extremely skeptical to say the least.

but can it carry a nuclear warhead?

He can't.
He's talking out his arse to be a visionary and to procure investment, fame, and money, etc.
Smart move.

He's just trying to drum up interest and investors.
His companies will probably go bankrupt in a few years and he'll walk away with billions.

I don't believe he can build a rocket in an hour.

No. It costs $10k per pound to get into orbit. Suborbital is way easier, takes way less energy, and is way cheaper. He's not talking about putting people into orbit. He's talking about lobbing people, at most, halfway around the world and smashing them onto any spot on the planet in under an hour.

Because he'll get the government to subsidize the cost down to an economy ticket price.
Between Tesla and SpaceX, I find Elon Musk to be largely a fraud.

Plus thinking it through even more, they'd have to weigh every passenger very precisely and not allow them to eat or drink after being weighed. And imagine if this fat frick shows up. What the hell are they going to do?

Elon Musk claims to be able to do a whole lot of shite.
90% of it is bullshite.

Elon needs to stop taking Ambien. He tweets and emails while "sleepwalking".
Posted on 9/29/17 at 2:10 pm to OMLandshark
Oh the government cheese and peanut butter that is out there.
Posted on 9/29/17 at 2:11 pm to OMLandshark
I appreciate Elon's "can do" attitude...but he's full of shite a lot of the time
Posted on 9/29/17 at 2:13 pm to OMLandshark
What tax subsidy is required..... he can't build without them
