I literally cannot think of a worse way to launder money then an extremely high profile public crowdfunding campaign.

Laundering? They're not even entering as investors are they, so they are not really expecting any return other that a presumably finished game at some point?

That and they release their financial reports every year...

The people in this thread are astoundingly hateful idiots that are just doing the groupthink thing to be part of a group that lets them feel "smarter than you." It's really disappointing to see this every time star citizen is mentioned, but I'll just continue to enjoy it and then welcome all these people when it's completed as they suddenly stop hating on it because it isn't fashionable anymore.
