The easiest way to save money in our Budget, Billions and Billions of Dollars, is to terminate Elon’s Governmental Subsidies and Contracts
I think it’s a totally reasonable thing to do.
We Should Immediately
NationalizeDismantle SpaceX and StarlinkThere’s nothing to be gained from continuing these military grifts.
Honestly surprising to see the ratio here. (11⬆️ to 7⬇️ at time of posting.) Downvoters, I’m curious about your rationale: why do you think this is a bad idea?
It would be far better to dismantle these dumb grifts than to nationalize them.
The only time the government is willing to spend money on space exploration ( or anything for that matter) is if they are trying to play a game of “Im better then you” with other nations.
We have a public space agency in the US and they have done jack all in maned space exploration since the end of the Apollo program. And what little they have done has been massively overpriced.
In my opinion , it’s best to have both public and commercial space flight programs. Greed in two different directions might actually accomplish something and I strongly believe that we need a STRONG space presence not just in our own solar system but in many systems throughout the galaxy for our own survival as a species.
Interesting. Thank you for sharing your perspective. I appreciate it.

Mostly true but perhaps a more important motivation is threatening the entire planet with doomsday.

The MIC will love this endless fantasy. Inter-galactic imperialism! $$$!
While I like the idea. The last thing we need to do, is give trump the power to do this.
…he has it? That’s a power of the government. It may require more than just trump to say to do it, but he definitely has the ability to nationalize just about anything.
