Exploration of outer space has been hobbled by the fact that the legal structure we have created eliminates most incentives to invest in space exploration. This explains why there is so little effort made to explore outer space. This relationship between incentives and activity holds lessons for our domestic economic policies as well.

The resources in space belong to no one. But China will change all that with or without the world’s cooperation.

All our treaties not related specifically to establishing national borders or Indian reservations should be immediately abrogated. And I’m open to reconsidering 54-40 or fight.

You mean there is a law against mining on the Mars. When did the little green people pass it. For PC purposes, No offense to green Martians intended. Could I have a link to the Mars Times.
