With a functioning federal government I would agree with you. But unfortunately they have an open checkbook right now, with no accountability or critical oversight.

I hate to be this guy, but this is just... not true. That's not how this works at all. How is the government giving SpaceX money outside of a contract? They aren't.

Everyone wants to find a reason to hate SpaceX because Musk, but the truth is SpaceX is a well-ran innovative company.
