RE: Another Private Company Doing what NASA can't do

Like go to the moon, land rovers on Mars that operate for a decade past their design life, send probes to the furthest reaches of the solar system and walk in space? How does a billionaire profiting off the taxpayers help?
It's not really competition, its graft. Musk and Branson get the government contracts not because they are the best or smartest or most efficient but because they are the best connected.
