"Follow the money. Always follow the money. That's what it's all about."
You need to qualify your statement. I think I know what you mean, but we're not talking about some investment bank being built on Mauna Kea. This is a scientific adventure and the investment is in scientific knowledge and understanding our universe. It's an investment in encouraging our youth to learn about science and become our future teachers, engineers and scientists. The profits might come later to everyone, but this is not a project designed to make money.
