#3 reduce costs for taxpayers

Which is the problem in the first place. Why are our tax dollars being used for these follies in the first place? If private industry wants to send things/people to the moon, then fine.

#7 Nope. That's enough for me to not trust Musk, a crony capitalist of the highest order.

By this time next year, don't be surprised to see Tesla below $100/share...maybe by EOY.
