and how many of these people have flown?

As of February 2011, Virgin Galactic has accepted over 400 reservations and collected $50 million in deposits.[45]

seems a bit behind schedule but no matter the state of NM and local municipalities taxpayers are on the hook

[everittdmickey]

another strawman
did anyone force the state of NewMexico or the local municipalites to invest?
I'd suspect that it's a high risk investment.
High Risk investments have a high risk of failure..also the possibillity of high rewards.

[funbobby51]

they shift the risk onto the taxpayers. Politicians are spending other people's money so they tend to be terrible custodians of it.

[everittdmickey]

can't argue that.
