Must be nice to have all that but I wonder how far all that excess money could go toward feeding some of the hungry people/kids in his own country.

You are so correct. I guess he is like a lot of folks, loving the creation and forgetting the creator. Lot's of folks get that verse messed up. It is not money that is the root of all evil, it is the LOVE of it. My sermon for the day.

I'm skeptical about some of the technology shown. The elevator that descends from the belly, and the drive-on car ramp would both be MAJOR engineering challenges. Simply adding fold-up stairs (like on a biz jet), would be major, but this seems to be a bridge too far.

"He" doesn't even get a dollar out of the $4.00 "at the pump" price. The majority of the money goes to oil companies and governments (local and federal). "He" only gets the market value of oil.

If it aint' Boeing, it ain't goin'.

Frankly, I find it more practical to have camels at each end of the journey, so I don't need to pack them on board.
