I guess it's easier to casually mention you might not recoup your investment when it's not your $200mil but my point it's just that there's a lot of speculative technical research or cultural output that is very hard to predict outcome, some of these things also requiring high paid labor, and we don't have a huge thing around "omg if they don't all become billionnaires selling drugs nobody will make drugs because it's so hard and expensive", meanwhile people are going to space and so on. | ||||||||

More people are developing drugs than going to space. And going to space is valuable and makes billionaires, because it's a super high risk, high reward industry. If you want to make it into only a high risk industry, no one is going to space. | ||||||||
