For a more in-depth analysis of "Big Space," see the linked Policy Paper, "Capitalism in Space," by Zimmerman at: http://behindtheblack.com/books/capitalism-in-space/

(as always, this is not Bob Dylan, George Zimmerman's brother, or the lefty hack of the same name.)

From the article...

Compared to the crony capitalism of Boeing and Lockheed Martin, which have sucked almost $50 billion from the taxpayers for SLS/Orion while producing no flights, Elon Musk is a piker.

I'm sick and tired of folks trashing Musk for gov subsidies. He is actually delivering launch platforms for a fraction of the price of gov subsidized ULA prices.

I also like how Musk and his Boring Company will make Governor Jihad Jerry Moonbeam Brown look like an idiot with his trillion dollar train to nowhere.
