    Throw Musk in prison for his many documented crimes, but don’t support this kind of dictator shit.

    The nationalization of SpaceX will mean a slowdown in development, like in the case of NASA.

    Arrest Musk on violation of controlled substances acts, file immigration violation charges, invalidate his ownership shares due to securities fraud, as he falsified education and naturalization forms.

    Or just emminent domain the shit. The Law is just made up right now.

    No, they’re fine remaining as private companies. If the government wants to better control over the companies then they can pass regulation and if they want total control then they can build their own alternatives. Nationalization of companies should never be used as a political weapon.

      SpaceX and Starlink basically have no competition, and if they did, said competitor would also need to be heavily subsidized.

      SpaceX has loads of capable engineers. If NASA gets a massive budget increase, they need to draw from that pool of talent.

      NASA hasn’t take the slightest risk since Challenger. They wouldn’t have accomplished 1/20th of the launch capability SpaceX has developed in the last 5 years.

    I’ve been saying this for years. the footprint that spaceX represents in national launch authority is out of whack to say the least.
