Nationalizing SpaceX would turn it into nowadays NASA’s system which is risk zero and the expense of pushing the envelope and fast changes. SpaceX doesn’t mind blowing up 10 rockets while nasa will spend years to design one and launch it once.
It doesn’t behoove us to have one man be capable of derailing entire segments of our national policy at his whim, especially when that man was never elected to anything.
Assuming /u/NeoNachtwaechter is conflating companies, lumping Starlink in with SpaceX. So that would make him a pro-Russian sympathizer. If not, describe and discuss your evidence.
Just alluding to “people” means shit. Aligning with Putin is shit.
Look - IMHO, Elon and his cars are expensive garbage, but for real accusations on his character and business ethics/acumen to stick, you need to show proof - not hearsay.
Their way of working. It is like a software shop, for example the “fail fast” principle.
This seems disruptive in the world of engineering, and it has caused many people wonder. But it is not the best way if you suddenly have living people sitting in the rockets.

It’s not like they’d HAVE to continue with the same policy.
B’sides, at least NASA doesn’t blow up a launch pad within a nature preserve just to stay on schedule…
SpaceX doesn’t mind blowing up living people, too.

Who have they blown up?
What makes you say that?
I mean, Elon, sure, but did the company overall do something I missed…?
Conversations with employees of that company
So no actual proof, eh?

That’s the shit he sells.
