I still don't understand the hatred some conservatives have for this guy. It's my understanding that it wasn't government subsdidies, but rather government loans, and I also understand that he's paid a good chunk of them back.

I believe he's doing excellent work getting us back into space. I honestly think his Dragon 2.0 manned crew capsule will get us back into space faster than NASA's Orion capsule. And he's got rockets landing vertically, like God and Robert Heinlein intended. (credit to another FReeper who said that first.)

Unless the guy has come out and said "I hate the US and I hate Trump", I'm going to keep rooting for him to march us onward and upward.

FReepers never mention anymore the bailout GM got.

Don’t forget about Boeing, their maned spcecraft is due for an unmanned test in August to the ISS. Unlike SpaceX it will come down overland. I agree with you, I like what Musk has been doing. In the beginning of Falcon 9,he was the only Engineer, they could not afford one.
