The richest person in the world, who has had billions from government handouts, decided they were going to audit government spending.
Fraud doesn't even begin to describe it.
- WalterBright 7mo agoSpaceX did not receive government subsidies. Government contracts, yes, but those are payments for services delivered, not subsidies or handouts.
- ericjmorey 7mo agoThose contracts are direct subsidies. They would not exist in the private market. Government spending subsidizes whatever it spends on.
- WalterBright 7mo ago> Those contracts are direct subsidies. They are not. You are imputing your own meanings into the word "subsidy". If you buy a Coke from a Coke machine, you are not "subsidizing" the machine's vendor.
