What's the point of a 12-minute flight? Seems like a HUGE WASTE of money that could be better used elsewhere.

So you dislike a private company offering private individuals a service which is (in your opinion) a waste of money! Isn't this the very basics of business, offering something of value to those who wish to purchase?
Restricting the individual freedom as to how you wish to spend your money seems like a dangerous path tofollow!

I agree. If someone wants to spend a million bucks to fly to suborbit, then so be it. However, I don't think there a lot of fans of Blue Origin. A rocket company that's never made it to orbit. Suing SpaceX because they won a lunar lander contract from NASA doesn't look good. Especially from a company that has never been to space. SpaceX literally lands their rockets on drone ships. Heck, even Boeing needs them to rescue their astronauts. Blue Origin has as much luck advancing human civilization as does Tik Tok.
