We wound up having to radically accelerate how that worked because that actually comes under the FAA.
Largely because you have to go through the national airspace to get to space, right?
And there's actually parts of it that sit with commerce.
So it would make sense to disentangle that one way or the other, whether it's inside of DOT or whether you configure it a new way.
I mean, I do think that Washington in general, my party's definitely guilty of this, is too attached to all of the structures that we have right now and the existing work charts and existing habits.
And one message I'm trying to get my party to accept is,
If and when we get another chance, a lot of the things that he has burned down just aren't coming back the way they were.
Why would we put them back the way they used to be if it was full of problems anyway?
I don't have a really deeply considered answer for you, but I wouldn't be hostile to a change just because it's a change or just because it came from this administration.
So I think that there's a potential to save a huge number of lives.
You know, we talked earlier about the incredible standard of aviation safety, right?
Zero fatalities per billion, better.
It's the opposite on roadway safety.
Nobody talks about it.
And we had a plug door blow out of an airplane and we reconsidered our whole oversight framework because somebody could have gotten hurt that day.
Meanwhile, every day, 100 to 150 people die on our roadways to car crashes and vehicles driven by humans.
I mean, it's enough to fill a 737 every day.
It's on par with gun violence, 30,000, 40,000 people a year.
So...
Human drivers have a murderous track record.
