ROCKETEERS

I'm going to safely send three people to space multiple times in this little
craft, this little thing that costs less than 1 percent of what the cost would
be in a government developed program, probably 0.5 percent.

Caugh!
And about less than one percent of what a space program would do also.

A lot of them crashed. A lot of them didn't even get off the ground.
By natural selection the airplane was developed, and most of it was
nonsense, but the ones that became breakthroughs are the airplanes
of today.

Ahem!
Don't we have things like computers that eliminate the need to crash real models?

Burt Rutan is no kook. He is a highly respected aircraft designer and builder, and he has a lot of highly qualified people working for him and with him. I would give him some benefit of the doubt before spinning his quotes against him.
