Capitalism in space does not, to date, include people in space. Nothing on the horizon does either. The trajectory of robotics probably means there will never be a compelling reason for humans in Earth orbit. A real comedown from all that SF I read.
People will be in Earth orbit because many people want to be in Earth orbit, and a subset of them will be able to afford to do so. Tell Jared Isaacman that there will never be a compelling reason to be in Earth orbit, and see what he says.
