The people in New Mexico are among the poorest in the country. Crooked former Gov. Bill Richardson and Branson convinced the state to finance Spaceport America, and a special hangar and runway for Virgin Galactic, in hopes this will bring tourists to the area. The poor people there are being taxed to pay for all this. So far this hasn’t brought one dime to Sierra County.
