Not a publically traded company. No shares/can’t buy. And Musk will never put it up because a board of directors would kill his plans for a Martian Colony faster than you can say “Risk!” He can’t build his evil villain volcano lair in Olympus Mons if he loses control of SpaceX.

He’d have to pry it out of Elon Musk’s cold, dead fingers. He rebuffed Apple’s attempt to buy Tesla already. One simply does not acquire companies from an actual genius.

...your move, Bezos.

This is from 4 years ago, but I’ll respond because it’s Parks & Recs and Batman related. Ron isn’t really into all the new tech, so that would lean him more towards Green Arrow than Batman, since a bow and arrow is more outdoorsy, and Batman is much higher tech than Green Arrow, CW version aside.

I imagine that it wouldn’t come to more than a few percent of that amount of material. An asteroid like this could build

AT LEAST a billion dollar profit!

Look, when you make 3/4 of a $1 Billion dollars (twice) it’s hard to say “yeah we suck, we pooched it”.

Nor would it have the electronic warfare systems that, while not much talked about, are really the revolutionary capability that the F-35 will bring. Nor will it have the internal weapons bay that truly provides stealth during the first days of combat, when the objective is first to take down an enemy integrated

In recent memory, Archie fought zombies, met Predator, and took a bullet for the President. He’s branching out.

That’s because it’s NOT really Archie.

It's well known that you're far more likely to get ripped off at a mechanic than at a restaurant. So why do we park our kids in front of tiny plastic kitchens to make imaginary meals when they could be learning important auto repair and maintenance skills instead?

I know Ben would be offended at not being Batman, and I can't help thinking that, for all the times Batman has been described as a fascist, Ron would have objections too, even if a private citizen rendering the police force obsolete using his own handmade tools would probably be right up Ron's alley…
