    Air yeah, water though. We absolutely rent water. My point though is that we’re already used to paying a monthly sum to exist.

      In a market economy. I’d never sign up to be slave to a single corporation that has complete control of my life and livelihood.

        Well hopefully we don’t ever get to an orbital habitat fully owned and controlled by anything except a representative government. But we do need to get off this rock and humans are bad at long term planning. But we’re uniquely good at. “OhShitOhShitOhShit, we need to engineer something right now!”

        And yeah I realize that’s close to brinkmanship, but really I’m just confident we could do it if we were properly motivated.
