Thom, that's a well-stated POV. I have made a few observations about Musk and his influence. Biden's government, careless/lazy in granting him access to our nation's security, has used him to its advantage. However, letting the genie out of the bottle has allowed Musk to make massive and dangerous inroads into control of our lives. When Biden brought him in to do his bidding, Musk insinuated himself so that he accrued power, i.e., space and war enabler. Just about all of Congress and the House drank the cool aide to keep themselves at the table, and due to the fact the Republicans had learned to ingratiate themselves to Trump, they gave away their decency to Musk as well as transmogrifying him. I don't think his space knowledge was worth what monster we have in Musk.

Thanks for a both a provocative and reasonable explanation of why Musk seems to hold the keys to our kingdom, now, in the form of such lucrative contracts, etc.
