Look at what the DIV is achieving. Look at what SpaceX and StarLink are achieving.

When in doubt: don't imitate the DIV.






What is "the DIV"?

Probably "The Diversity Immigrant Visa program, also known as the green card lottery, is a United States government lottery program for receiving an immigrant visa followed by a permanent resident card." (per Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diversity_Immigrant_Visa )

That came up on a Wikipedia search but doesn't make much sense. How can you meaningfully compare the performance of a visa program with a space company?

Not sure but I heard people in the know criticizing the way this program is managed, in a way similar to the way many in the US criticize the DMV (Department of motor vehicles, "a government agency that administers motor vehicle registration and driver licensing"), leading to a slow and overcomplicated organization.
