The DeBeers grift is a constant reminder that if space billionaires actually did start reeling in asteroids to mine, that wealth is not going to magically bring post-scarcity the way space bazingas dream that it will. It would be more hoarded resources and a lot more pollution to push out of whatever those resources get made into for profit.

Rules:

  1. Be civil and nice.
  2. Try not to excessively repost, as a rule of thumb, wait at least 2 months to do it if you have to.
