Do you think SpaceX would have landed rockets if Elon wasn't there?
I feel like the safe bet in 2010 was compete on government contracts and print money. Without Elon, SpaceX is just another Boeing. The best teams won't get to Mars if investors want them to crank the money printer or congress wants a jobs program.
