Comment on We Should Immediately Nationalize SpaceX and Starlink

Has anyone considered funding NASA?
They made rockets that didn’t explode with duct tape and a TI-83 calculator.

What “they made” 50 years ago is of little value now. Expertise matters, and it’s lost with time passing.
Still - yes. Nationalization is a bad solution because it gives the state power to nationalize. Seems a truism.
Just let NASA work in its normal role. Instead of replacing that with SpaceX contracts.

Looks like we found someone who believed it was financially necessary for the manufacture of the shuttle to be spread across the country.

If that was actually their expenditure I don’t think they’d have their budget cut.

Shouldn’t be incompatible with nationalizing SpaceX and Starlink. Just give it all to NASA, actually.

Sure, that’s the ideal.
Is it likely? Ehhhh

From this admin? Nah. It’ll be stolen and given to, idk, Thiel ir Vance or whoever, but not nationalized, just reprivatized.
