The implication is that "building space rockets to escape Earth" is bad.

Ok but why is that bad here? Because they are not interested in serving the tech needs of the Dutch, and have other interests.

That's not an anti-tech stance, quite the opposite!

No.

The implication is that it should not be an oligarchy but a democracy that inhabits other planets - which is indeed a valid stance.

The issue is not going to space. The issue is supporting a system where a single entity controls it, supporting a dictatorship.

Which is funny, because the US had this stance. At least under WW2 and the cold war.

Who know what happened, the US population allowed corporate greed to take over - what a shame.
