A contract with NASA is a government subsidy comparable to what Airbus gets?

That sounds like a stretch to me. If I buy a car am I subsidizing the car company the same way as if I just gave them money without taking delivery of a car from them?

Just giving you the reverse argument. For example a research contract is not the same a s a contract for goods. Will Beoing ever pay back the development costs to the Feds? Royalties to the taxpayer?
