I still think Elon should layoff ALL the Starbase workers, and blame it all on the lack of an FAA launch license because of spilling drinking water on the ground and splashing down a small metal ring in the middle of the ocean. Also stress how China is moving ahead rapidly in developing rocket technology without having to deal with such issues. Just keep it to those facts and don't go weird Elon and talk about weird stuff.

Just sit back and watch all the politicians would have a major freak out this close to a major election. The VERY LAST THING they want is headlines of any kind of news of job loss and layoffs. He will get his launch license right away.

What are the issues that the FAA want to address? The devil is in the details. I agree that this program should be given special dispensation, and loosening of the "rules" as it is very important. Advocating that people at spaceX should be laid off seems chaotic to me.

Well since Boca Chica is right next Mexicos border, wonder if they moved base a few km south, would it be out of FAA jurisdiction? If the FAA becomes a major hindrance I can see Elon taking his Starship business off shore....
