Epic. And 3000+ jobs. Win win!
Does the critique that none of these jobs are going to locals carry much water? I can't imagine this being the case

Serious question - Is that good to have no other competition?

Sounds cool, but what does that do to the wildlife refuge?

Maybe they can package a deal where Elon picks and hires the new Director of LADWF that actually know what the hell he is doing.

When he doesn't make anywhere close to 30 launches a day, are people on this website going to eat crow? Or are they just going to forget all about how Elon made that claim, and be getting all excited about the new promise Elon will have made by then?

Trying to imagine Elon negotiating with our stupid arse politicians. Dumb Jeff Landry trying to have a conversation with Elon must be hilarious.

Whatever happened it worked, and if this project completes like Elon says it will, Landry will go down in Louisiana history as a hero, whether you like him or not.

Self driving is real. Waymo has thousands of vehicles in their fleet and are doing over 500k paid rides a week. None with drivers present.
