Quest for Clickbait

Seriously.

Yes, Karl, Musk does business with the government, and sometimes that involves subsidy, which he didn't necessarily lobby for.

Much of the time the taxpayers are getting a much better product and value in return than that offered by the traditional government contractors. Sometimes, they're getting a product that didn't exist before Musk pushed-the-envelope.

Unlike Karl, I'm not a fan of subsidy, ever. But in the scheme of things, if "we" are paying $3M to send satellite terminals to Ukraine, what exactly is the controversy?
