Comment on We Should Immediately Nationalize SpaceX and Starlink

Every single launch is testing every single part of the hardware and software. Tests failing isn’t a bad thing, as it helps you fix problems and make things better.

They are years behind schedule and obscenely over budget on this testing. They’re not even making new technology here, they are just cheaping out on the builds to funnel money into their own pockets.

You have any links to support that it’s just cheap materials causing the failures?
