If you watch the video then you’ll see the facts

Musk is another one getting rich off government contracts.

When did it come into fashion to hate rich people? Musk is saving taxpayers billions of dollars by doing the work cheaper than anyone else. The work is going to get done either way. Would you be happier if Boeing were doing all of it at 10 times the price?

I don’t hate all rich people. I look at each individual as an individual and evaluate how they got rich and how they’re using their money. Musk got rich (initially) by inventing the precursor to Paypal. Smart man. He then used that money to start new American businesses that are revolutionizing their industries and putting Americans back to work building things.

Let that sink in: Musk is putting AMERICANS back to work BUILDING things. You want to hate rich people? Fine. Let me know when poor people start building factories in American cities and putting food on the tables of American workers.

Yea! Just like Boeing, Lockheed, Northrop, MaBell, IBM, etc., never made a dime on all the money government threw at them over the decades.

Please.

Gov Contracts or no - Musk is good for America! IMHO he deserves a Presidential MOF.

But more to the point - the Gov. contracts would still exist with or without Musk. At least he is actually producuing something.

You mean like Ross Perot? Lockheed? or anyone of a dozen defense contractors?
