so i really dislike his current form and think he needs to go back to his proverbial kitchen but at the same time spaceX was a gigantic win for the US and we should encourage more. the $ saved from launch contracts alone make up for the subsidies like exponentially (in spaceX case, tesla different)

i like coffee, crypto, animals, plants, drones, 3D printing, midjourney, and stickers

oh yeah, definitely. like parks generate $4 for every $1 spent, the IRS generates more than that like $7 per $1 (and it usually comes out of the pockets of the people who lobby congress to get rid of them) musk shouldn't be in charge of anything that has to do with humanities imo, he needs to stick building stuff.

Ya, not saying there wasn't a benefit from some of these government contracts more the hypocrisy. There's also a benefit from offering head start services to children just to name one program that's going to be on the cutting block.
