> Cost plus contracts are well intentioned
Are they though? If a casual layman internet reader can see the problem and see that they always get taken advantage of for profit, couldn't also the NASA officials and contractors signing these contracts? They know exactly what they are doing.
SpaceX signed non-cost plus contracts and delivered far more quickly and cheaply than the rest.
