You don't need taxpayer funding to build the spaceport and you don't need it to attract business to the area. New Mexico has a lot going for it when it comes to attracting space travel companies <i>without</i> raising taxes. Trevor, I wish you the best and I hope you make a ton of money!

But lets look at the plus side to it. More Hi-Tech firms, means better paying jobs, this helps the economy grow. New Mexico needs more hi-tech firms to move in to the State and the Economic development board have been very helpful in this respect. I am going to relocate to Las Cruces, with it I will generate jobs in the area. Some space related. So give it some serious thought, the future is becoming reality. Together we can grow in New Mexico. Trevor Murdoch. I can understand taxpayers being leery about upping there taxes to pay for a Space Port in New Mexico. But lets look at the plus side to it.

It would seem that the places that are most conducive to being space ports should even consider charging for the privilege. you can't just set up a spaceport anywhere. doesn't branson have billions of dollars?
