There has been quite a bit of promotion and subsequent whining about the recent billionaire space race.  It has been pointed to as an example of the excesses and problems with capitalism that these billionaires are playing around with gross amounts of money.  But this consternation is based on an idea that good, moral, smart people should be awarded with money.  Capitalism does not provide award based on merit as much as it provides a way to develop products and solutions across a large population, which ensures a higher probability of positive outcomes.  #TheMuppetShow
